Re: Ordinances 36-21 and 37-21 – Acquisition of Right-of-Way – Bright Road 12-inch
Water Main Extension (19-023-CIP)
Summary
The Bright Road 12-inch Water Main Extension Project (19-023-CIP) (the “Project”) will provide for a
12-inch water main extension on Bright Road to complete a water main connection between the
Emerald Parkway/Bright Road roundabout and an existing 12-inch water main at the Villages of
Inverness. This will provide a looped water main connection for Riverside Woods, Bryson Cove, Hanna
Hills, Kiplinger Estates, the Glenbriar neighborhood, Dublin Scioto High School, and the Washington
Township Fire Department Station 92. Currently, there is a single 12-inch water main supplying water
beyond the Emerald Parkway/Hard Road intersection. Additionally, this water main extension will
serve the Areas 4A, 4B and 4C utility extension areas.
The design and property acquisition for this project were programmed in 2019 with the construction
programmed in 2020. The design commenced in the later part of 2019, which was followed by the
property acquisition that commenced in 2020. The property acquisition has taken longer than
anticipated. The current schedule is to advertise the project for bid in late 2021. Once the
construction contract has been executed, construction activities are expected to commence in late
2021 or early 2022.
The Project requires the acquisition of property interest from two (2) property owners along the south
side of Bright Road as shown on the attached Location Map. The City has participated in good faith
discussions with both property owners and has arrived at mutually agreeable terms with both
property owners.
Acquisitions
The Project requires the acquisition of property interest from the following property owners:
