Re: Ordinances 24-25 through 27-25 – Acquisition of Easements for the Waterways
Maintenance Program 2025 Project (24-016-CIP)
Update
At the first reading of Ordinances 24-25 through 27-25 on June 23, 2025, City Council members
requested a cost comparison of the proposed stream stabilization treatment measures and
additional information regarding the duration and repeatability of temporary easements for the
Waterways Maintenance Program 2025 Project (Project).
Stream Stabilization Treatment Measures
The Project utilizes rock armoring, anchor logs, slope erosion protection matting, and a
composition of naturalized material as stream stabilization treatment measures. The naturalized
material includes the following composition:
• 50% four (4) to six (6)-inch minimum diameter brush (harvested on-site or imported)
• 20% gravel (harvested on-site)
• 20% four (4) to six (6)-inch stone (imported)
• 10% soil (harvested on-site)
In determining the type of stream stabilization treatment measure(s) utilized for each site, Staff
carefully considered the severity and extent of erosion, access to the sites, long term maintenance
operations, cost, and benchmarking with other communities. An installation cost comparison of the
proposed stream stabilization treatment measures is depicted in the following table and is based
on the engineer’s opinion of probable construction cost:
Stream Stabilization Treatment Measure Unit Cost per Linear Foot
Rock Armoring $62 minimum to $82 maximum
Anchor Logs $30
Slope Erosion Protection Matting $26
Naturalized Material Composition $195

Temporary Easement Duration and Repeatability
The four (4) temporary easements for the Project are needed for access and construction
operations. The temporary easements will be in effect for one (1)-year from the start of
construction. Staff conservatively anticipates the Project improvements will provide stream
stabilization at each site for over thirty (30)-years. Given the dynamic nature of waterways, access
locations to perform stream stabilization improvements may change over time. As a result, in
addition to the anticipated lifespan of the Project improvements, future temporary easement needs
for access and construction operations will be evaluated and acquired at the time waterway
improvements are deemed necessary.
Recommendation
Staff recommends adoption of Ordinances 24-25 through 27-25 at the second reading/public
hearing on July 1, 2025.

Re: Ordinances 24-25 through 27-25 – Acquisition of Easements for the Waterways
Maintenance Program 2025 Project (24-016-CIP)
Background
The Waterways Maintenance Program (Program) provides for the maintenance of waterways, open
channels, and streams located within City of Dublin (City)-owned properties or properties where
the City has maintenance responsibility through an established easement. The Program preserves
and improves the stability and flood carrying capacity of the waterways, addresses areas of
erosion, and protects riparian corridors and infrastructure. The proper operation of waterways is
critical to ensuring the conveyance of stormwater runoff and reducing the occurrence of flooding
and damage to infrastructure due to channel erosion. Reducing areas of erosion will decrease the
sediment loading on a waterway, improve the aquatic habitat and reduce turbidity in the water.
Summary
The projects identified within the Program include improving bank stabilization for the following
eight (8) stream sites across the City, as shown on the Project Location Maps at the end of this
memo:
• Site 3: Located along Tamarisk Creek, north of Tonti Drive, east of Red Bay Court
• Site 18: Located along South Fork Indian Run, within Darree Fields
• Site 22: Located along South Fork Indian Run, north of Post Road, east of Avery-Muirfield
Drive
• Site 24: Located along Bait Shop Creek, south of Tonti Drive
• Site 25, 27, and 28: Located along Tonti Creek, south of Wyandotte Woods Boulevard,
west of Lanham Court
• Site 44: Located along North Fork Indian Run, north of Brand Road, west of Shannon Glen
Boulevard
The stream sites included in the Program were prioritized based on the severity of erosion and
other relevant factors. The Program consists of clearing and grading activities, stream bank
reshaping and stabilization, and riprap, native material, and erosion protection matting installation.
The Program also includes the installation of temporary sediment controls, permanent stabilization
of disturbed areas, and riparian buffer zone plantings to enhance channel stability. Presently, the
Project is planned to be advertised for bids in July 2025, with construction planned to commence
in Fall 2025 and be complete by Spring 2026.

The Program requires the acquisition of a temporary easement from four (4) properties for
construction operations: 6810 Avery-Muirfield Drive, 7777 Lanham Court, 7771 Boylston Court, and

the property owners in the Project area. The City has participated in good faith discussions with

property owners. After Council’s adoption of these four ordinances, the City will have completed all
necessary acquisitions for the Project.
