TO: Mayor and Council
SUBJECT: Glenview Drive ? Street Abandonment
INITIATED BY: Engineering
Recommendation: Approve the attached Ordinance deleting from the
"Official Map of the Consolidated Government of Columbus, Georgia" an
unimproved segment of Glenview Drive beginning at the west right-of-way line of
Olivia Lane west to the east right-of-way line of Winifred Lane declaring as
surplus and authorizing its disposal in accordance with the City Code.
Background: Glenview Drive has a segment of its right-of-way unimproved
between Winifred Lane and Olivia Lane. The Muscogee County School District
originally deeded the sixty-foot right-of-way to Muscogee County in 1963 for
the purpose of building a public street. Glenview Drive is paved Public Street
from Olivia Lane east to Celeste Drive. See the attached aerial photo.
Analysis: Grayhawk Homes, Inc. requested that this unimproved segment be
declared surplus in order to allow them to extend the existing Olivia Lane lots
some thirty feet. The northern thirty feet will be quit claimed back to the
Muscogee County School District. The City?s Community Reinvestment department
will handle the property value and disposal of said property to Grayhawk Homes,
Inc. and the Muscogee County School District.
Financial Considerations: There is no financial consideration with declaring
the property surplus. The disposition of the property will be addressed in a
resolution at the January 24th Council meeting.
Projected Annual Fiscal Impact Statement: There is no projected financial
impact associated with this action.
Legal Considerations: The purpose of this ordinance is to declare this street
surplus and to authorize its disposal that has to be approved by Council.
Recommendations/ Actions: Approve an ordinance declaring an unimproved segment
of Glenview Drive surplus and authorize its disposal.
