Re: Resolution 04-23 – Authorizing the City Manager to Enter into a Letter of
Agreement with the Ohio Power Company (AEP Ohio) for the Franklin Street
Extension Project (21-012-CIP)
Background
The Franklin Street Extension Project (Project) will construct an extension of Franklin Street from
West Bridge Street north to North Street and reconstruct Franklin Street from West Bridge Street
south to Sells Alley as shown on the attached exhibit. The Project will construct the roadway, install
permeable paver parking bays, brick paver sidewalks, street trees, street lighting, and bury the
overhead utility lines from Sells Alley to North Street. The intersection of West Bridge Street and
Franklin Street will be signalized and include pedestrian crossings. Finally, the temporary pedestrian
crossing of West Bridge Street at Darby Street will be removed. Presently, this Project is planned to
start construction in early 2023 and is anticipated to be complete in the fall of 2023.
A copy of the construction drawings for the Project are provided electronically, and a print version can
be provided to Council upon request.
Summary
Since 2021, City staff has coordinated extensively with AEP to determine the scope of work and
develop the construction drawings necessary to bury existing overhead electric facilities for the
Project. As a part of this Project, through this Letter of Agreement, the Ohio Power Company (AEP
Ohio) will remove all existing overhead electric facilities and install new underground electric facilities
in the Project area. AEP Ohio will receive reimbursement from the City for the cost of removing the
existing overhead facilities and installing the underground electric facilities.
The City is responsible for the difference in the total construction costs less AEP Ohio’s cost if they
were to relocate aerially. This cost difference, which is the City’s responsibility, is $239,700.04. The
Project is funded in the 2022-2026 Capital Improvements Program (CIP) from the Franklin Street
Extension (ET204) in the amount of $2,700,000.
Acquisitions from two parcels are necessary within the project area for AEP Ohio’s relocation as
follows:
• A 0.017-acre permanent utility easement from the City-owned Darby Street Parking Lot as
provided by Ordinance 69-22 adopted by City Council on December 5, 2022.
• A 0.072-acre permanent utility easement from the Dublin City School District Board of Education
(80 West Bridge Street) as provided by Ordinance 74-22 anticipated to be adopted by City
Council on January 9, 2023.
