Re: Ordinance 80-21 – AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO ENTER
INTO A REAL ESTATE PURCHASE AGREEMENT FOR CERTAIN
PROPERTY OWNED BY SHEPHERD LAND HOLDING COMPANY,
AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION OF RELATED AGREEMENTS AND
DOCUMENTS, AND APPROPRIATING FUNDS THEREFOR.
Summary
The City has engaged in discussions with Shepherd Land Holding Co. to purchase property owned
by it comprised of approximately 50.69 acres of land (said real property, together with all
improvements constructed thereon, and all rights, appurtenances and hereditaments appertaining
thereto, shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Premises”)(Franklin County Parcel No. 271-000006
and Madison County Parcel No. 02-00172).
Background
City Council has discussed the need to have additional acreage in the City’s possession. Such
purchases of land enable the City to control the ultimate use of the property. Additionally, as the
City continues to grow and/or build out, opportunities to purchase property will diminish. The City
has experienced much success over the years through such purchases be they for economic
development, transportation and/or recreational use.
After negotiations with the owners, the purchase price of the Premises has been determined to be
$100,000 per usable acre. The price of the Premises is consistent with purchases made in the
immediate area. The Real Estate Purchase Agreement, if authorized by City Council, explains all
terms, conditions and closing requirements.
Financing Options
The following financing options are available to Council regarding this land acquisition.
Option: General Fund Balance
Utilize the General Fund Balance to provide cash for 100% of the acquisition cost. This option is in
compliance with the General Fund Balance Policy regarding the fund balance level.
As this has been the historical preference of Council, this ordinance will include an appropriation
from the General Fund for this purchase.
Option: Short-Term Financing
An advance for the acquisition cost would be appropriated from the General Fund to the Capital
Improvement Construction Fund. The advance would be repaid early in 2022 when the short-term
note proceeds are received. This note could be paid off in full, rolled into a future long-term debt
issuance or rolled forward to future years (with or without principal payments) as the City works to
develop the property.

Short-term financing would cost the City approximately $20,000 in financing related cost and
about 1% interest on the borrowing costs utilizing this option. While the City has historically
elected to utilize cash to finance land acquisition, the short-term financing approach should be
considered as a viable option as the City continues to acquire land.
As previously noted, this option does not preclude utilizing another option when the short-term
financing option expires. The City can continuously evaluate whether cash financing, debt
financing or continued short-term financing are in the best interest of the City. A significant
advantage of this option is that it allows the City to gain control over a property without sacrificing
flexibility regarding our cash on hand to appropriately respond to any uncertainty in our financial
environment.
Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of Ordinance No. 80-21 at the second reading/public hearing on
November 15, 2021, to allow the purchase of this property.

ARTICLE IV
EVIDENCE OF TITLE
7. Title Commitment. The City may obtain a commitment (a "Title Commitment") from a title
insurance company licensed to do business in the State of Ohio (the “Title Company”) to issue
an ALTA Owner's Title Insurance Policy (Form 6/17/06) in the full amount of the Purchase
Price of the Premises (the "Title Policy"). The cost of the Title Policy shall be paid by the
City. The Title Commitment will be certified to the Effective Date and will include copies of
all recorded documents evidencing title exceptions raised in Schedule B of the Title
Commitment. On or before the date of Closing, the Title Commitment must show in Seller
good and insurable title to the Premises, free and clear, except for the standard printed
exceptions contained in the final form of Schedule B of the Title Policy, and free and clear of
4
all liens, charges, encumbrances and clouds of title, whatsoever, except the following
(collectively, the "Permitted Encumbrances"):
a. Those created or assumed by the City; and
b. Zoning ordinances, legal highways and public rights-of-way which do not interfere
with the practical use of the Premises; and
c. Real estate taxes which are a lien on the Premises but which are not yet due and
payable;
d. Easements and restrictions of record acceptable to the City which do not interfere with
the City’s anticipated use of the Premises, which shall be reflected in the final form of
Schedule B to the Title Policy; and
e. A farm lease for the Premises, a copy or description of which shall be provided by
Seller as part of the Property Information.
The Title Commitment shall fully and completely disclose all easements, negative or
affirmative, rights-of-way, ingress or egress or any other appurtenances to the Premises, and
shall provide insurance coverage in respect to all of such appurtenant rights. The Title
Commitment shall include the results of a special tax search and examination for any financing
statements filed of record which may affect the Premises. As used herein, Title Company
means Stewart Title Company, 259 Schrock Road, Westerville, Ohio 43081.
8. Endorsement at Closing. At the Closing, the Title Company shall provide the City with
endorsements to the Title Commitment updating the commitment to the Closing Date and
showing no change in the state of the title to the Premises (other than mortgages which shall
be released by Seller at the Closing). After the Closing, the Title Company shall issue a final
owner's title insurance policy in the amount of the Purchase Price.
9. Survey. The City shall, at its own expense, obtain a current survey of the Premises. The
survey shall include a legal description of the Premises and shall be certified by the surveyor
to the City and the Title Company. This survey shall be used to establish the “Usable Acreage”
to determine the purchase price. Subject to the approval of the Title Company, the legal
description set forth on the survey shall be used in the Title Commitment and policy and in all
documents of transfer contemplated hereby. The survey shall be sufficient to waive or insure
over any and all questions or survey.
10. Status of Title; Permitted Encumbrances; Objections. Up and until five (5) days prior to
the Closing Date (the “Deadline for Objections”), the City may provide Seller with written
objections to the extent that the Title Commitment reveals matters other than the Permitted
Encumbrances (the "Objections") which constitute a monetary lien or which interfere with the
City’s use of the Premises for its intended purpose. The City’s failure to make written
Objections by the Deadline for Objections will constitute a waiver of the City’s right to make
Objections. Upon the City giving Seller written notice of Objections, Seller may either agree
5
in writing to satisfy the Objections, or in the absence of Seller’s written agreement to satisfy,
the City shall either waive the Objections, five (5) days prior to the Closing or terminate this
Agreement. In the event the Objections are not cured or removed, or in the event Seller cannot
provide satisfactory evidence that the Objections will be cured on or before the Closing Date
or that satisfactory endorsements to the Title Policy will be issued in order to satisfy the
Objections, the City shall make its election at closing, by written notice to Seller, to either:
a. Accept title to the Premises, at which point such uncured Objections shall be
Permitted Encumbrances hereunder; or
b. Terminate this Agreement.
ARTICLE V

insurable title in fee simple to the Premises by transferable and recordable limited warranty
deed under O.R.C. 5302.07, signed by all parties necessary, free and clear of all defects,

in writing by the Parties. Said Closing shall be held at a time and place in Franklin County,
