O'Callaghan, P.E., City Manager Date: January 14, 2026 Initiated By: Jean -Ellen Willis, P.E., Director of Transportation & Mobility Bassem Bitar, AICP, Deputy Director of Planning Mitchell Ament, Management Analyst Memo Re: Ordinances 02-26 and 03-26 — Acquisition of Easements for the Northern Historic District Infrastructure Improvements (25-029-CIP) Background The Northern Historic Dublin Area Infrastructure Improvements project (Project) is focused on revitalizing the North Riverview Street corridor within the Historic District. The goal is to create a pedestrian -oriented environment that enhances connectivity, stimulates economic development, and links key destinations such as The Dublin Link pedestrian bridge, Riverside Crossing Park, and Historic Dublin. To achieve this, the City is implementing a series of public infrastructure upgrades designed to improve streetscapes, pedestrian access, and multimodal connectivity. Planned improvements include improved intersections, new sidewalks and plazas, upgraded lighting, ADA-accessible features, burial of overhead utilities and the use of historically appropriate materials such as brick paver sidewalks and granite curbs to preserve the district's character. The project aims to establish a pedestrian -first environment that discourages through vehicular traffic east of North High Street, improves safety, and supports alternative transportation modes. These enhancements were informed by extensive planning efforts, traffic and parking studies, and community engagement. Feedback from residents —particularly regarding traffic flow, parking, and visual impacts —led to design refinements such as reduced on -street parking and the inclusion of visual breaks to preserve park views. This initiative aligns with the Envision Dublin Community Plan and the Historic District Area Plan, both of which emphasize walkability, shared public spaces, and enhanced streetscapes. Construction is scheduled to begin in early 2026, with completion anticipated in 2027. Summary The City has retained West Erie Realty Solutions, Ltd (West Erie) to serve as the acquisition agent for this project, which involves securing real estate from eight (8) property owners. The City is directly managing negotiations with two (2) of these owners: Community Space Development LLC (COhatch) and Dublin West D LLC (Crawford Hoying). For the remaining six (6) property owners, West Erie serves as the primary point of contact, working closely with City staff members to facilitate the acquisition process. The City has participated in good faith discussions with the property owners of the affected parcels and has come to mutually agreeable terms with two (2) of the property owners. A Good Faith Offer Letter, the appraisal report, and associated information were provided by West Erie to six (6) property owners in November 2025. The property acquisition consists of the Ordinances 02-26 and 03-26 — Acquisition of Easements for the Northern Historic District Infrastructure Improvements (25-029-CIP) January 14, 2026 Page 2 of 2 following two (2) property interests from the named property owners listed below and as depicted in the exhibits attached: Property Owner(s) Parcel Number Property Rights and Acreage Auditor Parcel ID Number(s) Appraised Value Ralco Properties, LLC 0.006-acre Temporary 36 — 38 N High St 4-T right of easement wa g y 273-000099 $2,120 0.005-acre Warranty Deed, with reservation of existing access rights 72 Dublin LLC 7-WD, 7-U, 273-000027, 20 North Street and 7-T 0.006-acre Permanent Utility Easement 273-004080 $39,370 0.024-acre Temporary right-of-way easement Ralco Properties, LLC (Temporary Easement): The good faith discussions with the property owner have resulted in mutually agreeable terms for the acquisition of their individual property interests at the appraised value of $2,120.00. 72 Dublin LLC (Warranty Deed, Permanent Utility Easement, Temporary Easement): The good faith discussions with the property owner have resulted in mutually agreeable terms for the acquisition of their individual property interests at the appraised value of $39,370.00. Recommendation Staff recommends approval of Ordinances 02-26 and 03-26 at the second reading/public hearing on February 9, 2026, as these ordinances will allow the Project to remain on schedule and proceed to construction. :: Hill Y m NMI I e- � ! �, �` - won - NORTH HIGH STREET- QN-L L h II _—ca W N-, Lu I � l .: 5—T _ -� o.01 o AC �-rJ •Jr:L V- w %I "' r �) r r r r �\J TJ J, r r 5_ U - 2 T rj r rj r-OI a �I r f� rJ��� 0.053 AC - O Q 0.005 AC r��r JJ�Yf :ai = - Z w IIr rg�`yVAJ 1Jr 2—WD 3 WD r 0.008 AC 0009 AC 1 T1 I J 1 � , � .z � - I 011 AC 3 T; 4 T -.. inh7 A nI I r F0.007 AC �� N AT Y ri D LID LI r 1� TEMPORARY EASEMENT PERMANENT UTILITY ESMT.
