From: Marsha I. Grigsby, City Manager'\N
Date: November 15, 2012
Initiated By: Dana L. McDaniel, Deputy City Manager /Director of Economic Development
Re: Ordinance 69 -12 — Property for New AEP Substation
Background
Ordinance 69 -12 authorizes the City Manager to enter into an agreement with American Electric
Power (AEP) to transfer 2.743 acres to AEP for the purpose of locating a new substation within the
area designated as the West Innovation District. As Council may recall, staff has discussed with
AEP the need to anticipate and provide high quality, high capacity and redundant power to the
West Innovation District. An option agreement was executed between the City of Dublin and AEP
in 2008 for 3.680 acres in the same area. This property was transferred to AEP under the option
agreement, but the deed conveying the property contained a reverter clause that required AEP's
conveyance of the property back to the City if the substation was not constructed in accordance
with timelines set forth in the option agreement. The timelines were not met, but we did not
require AEP to re- convey the property since we continued to negotiate with them in good faith.
During the course of the negotiations, City staff requested that AEP shift construction of the
substation slightly south of the originally contemplated site. This necessitates the transfer to AEP
of approximately 2.743 acres of property south of the originally transferred parcel. AEP will
transfer back to the City approximately 1.561 acres of the northern portion of the property that is
no longer needed, leaving a net dedication of 4.862 acres from the City to AEP. Under the terms
of the Real Estate Purchase Agreement, the City will grant AEP an access easement of
approximately 0.326 acres to the substation parcel.
AEP agreed that the following justifies the immediate need for this new substation:
• Data Center — the area has been considered by several potential users as a site for data
center development. AEP has recently commissioned a study analyzing the feasibility of
several sites in their service area most apt for this type of development. The site in the
West Innovation District is included in this analysis.
• Ohio University Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine
• Nestle Quality Assurance Center expansion
• Dublin Springs Hospital
• Site was certified in April by the Department of Development as a Job Ready Site
In discussion over the last year, AEP has committed to commence with construction as soon as
possible. From the City's perspective, construction of the substation will significantly add to the
marketability of the West Innovation District and support future growth of the surrounding area.

In addition to the substation, AEP will construct the southern portion of a new 138 kv transmission
line on existing towers to serve the new substation. This will bring additional power capacity to
the area. AEP has estimated the total cost of this project to be nearly $19 million.
Recommendation
Staff recommends Council approval of Ordinance 69 -12 at the second reading /public hearing on
December 10 as a means to spur AEP's construction of the Amlin substation, allowing for increased
marketability of the West Innovation District, and increase in electric availability and reliability for
future growth.
