MEMORANDUM
TO Dublin City Council
Jane S. Brautigam, City Manager
FROM Paul A. Hammersmith, PE, Director of Engineering /City Engineer
Stephen J. Smith, Law Director
DATE: June 27, 2007
RE: Ordinance No. 44 -07 - B.E.D. Development Property
(Tuttle Crossing Boulevard widening)
INTRODUCTION
This Ordinance is a follow -up to the Resolution passedby Council at the June 18, 2007 meeting.
By way of background, the Resolution authorized the City to pursue all the necessary legal
requirements to review the possible appropriation of the B.E.D. Development Company
property. The purpose of this Ordinance is to authorize the Law Department to pursue an
eminent domain action in the appropriate Court of Common Pleas if through good faith
negotiations the City cannot settle with the landowner.
PROJECT BACKGROUND:
The City, in partnership with the Franklin County Engineer's Office and the City of Columbus,
is preparing to widen Tuttle Crossing Boulevard from Emerald Parkway to Wilcox Road to
improve related traffic circulation. The partnering agencies are working diligently to complete
this project in a timely manner. This project requires the acquisition of either a `partial take"
(the purchase of a portion of the parcel for right -of -way) or a `total take" (the purchase of the
entire parcel) from multiple property owners on the north side of Tuttle Crossing Boulevard.
This memorandum discusses the partial take from B.E.D. Development Co. — a 0.069 acre, more
or less, easement for utilities. There are additional ordinances before Council conceming other
property involved in this project. The remaining property owners are the following: the Stilles,
United Dairy Farmer, Inc., the Geases, BRE /ESA P Portfolio LLC., Anita Joye Realty, and
Capitol City Lodge.
Utility relocation along the north side of Tuttle Crossing Boulevard portion of this project is
scheduled to commence as soon as the appropriations are completed. This project will be
advertised for bids this month with a bid opening anticipated at the end of the month or early in
July. Construction is not expected to commence until either late August or early September,
with completionin mid -2008.

Ord. 44 -07 Land Appropriation — B.E.D. Development Co.
Page 2 of 2
ACQUISITION DETAILS:
Since the year 2006, the Law Director's Office has been in contact with the landowners to
negotiate the required property acquisitions. All appraisals have been completed and the legal
department engaged M/E Company (Mr. Chris Howard) to negotiate the acquisitions with the
landowners. Mr. Howard has presented the offer of compensation to B.E.D. Development Co.
B.E.D. Development Co. has declined the offer. Therefore, an agreement cannot be reached. As
such, we prepared this ordinance authorizing the City, through the legal department, to proceed
with litigation in which the compensation to the landowner will be determined.
RECOMMENDATION:
Legal Staff and the Division of Engineering recommend approval of Ordinance No. 40 -07.
