Re: Resolution 49-22
Intent to Appropriate Parcel 2 on the South High Street Utility Burial –
Phase 1 Project (19-030-CIP)
SUMMARY
As part of the Downtown Historic District beautification efforts, the City will be relocating the existing
overhead utility lines along South High Street through the South High Street Utility Burial - Phase 1
Project (the “Project”), by installing underground electric (AEP) and telecommunication (Spectrum,
AT&T, Breezeline, and Dublink) utilities to service the affected parcels. The Project consists of two
phases as requested by AEP. The Phase 1 Project area includes Franklin Street south of West Bridge
Street and the west side of South High Street between West Bridge Street and Short Street. The
Phase 2 area includes the east side of South High Street and Blacksmith Lane between West Bridge
Street and Short Street (see location map on page 4 of this memo). At the completion of the Project,
all overhead utility lines and poles along South High Street will be removed between West Bridge
Street and Short Street.
Presently, this Project is planned to start construction in early 2023 and is anticipated to be complete
by the late summer or early autumn of 2023. The Phase 1 underground improvements are scheduled
to be performed in advance of the Franklin Street Improvements Project which includes road
reconstruction, sidewalks, curb ramps, street lights, and street trees on Franklin Street between Sells
Alley and Waterford Drive.
The City engaged MS Consultants, Inc. as the acquisition agent for the Project. In that role, MS
Consultants has been the point of contact, in addition to City staff, with the property owners on the
Project. Presently, the City has reached agreement with ten (10) of the twenty three (23) affected
parcels, with five (5) additional City of Dublin parcels requiring utility easements as well. The City has
participated in good faith discussions with all twenty three (23) property owners and hopes to arrive
at mutually agreeable terms with all property owners by the end of October 2022.
During the acquisition phase of the Project, the owner of Parcel 2 passed away and their estate set
four (4) heirs with a quarter interest in the property. However, one heir (Roy Carl Johnson, ¼
interest) is deceased and their estate is not currently through the probate process. The three (3)
living owners are agreeable to the City’s Fair Market Value Estimate (FMVE) and are in process of
executing a Right-of-Entry to perform the work on the parcel while the necessary easement is
appropriated. To keep the Project on schedule, this resolution begins the appropriation process to
await the finalization/probate of the deceased owner’s ¼ interest.
