Board preserves and abandons water/sewer rights for parcel annexed into Canal Winchester
Summary
The Board approved a Utilities resolution to abandon in part and preserve in part water and sewer service rights for a parcel annexed into the City of Canal Winchester, clarifying service reservation and developer fee expectations between the county and city.
Fairfield County Utilities presented a resolution to abandon in part and preserve in part county water and sewer service rights in a parcel that has been annexed into the City of Canal Winchester. The resolution clarifies that preserved service rights are reserved to avoid revenue loss, that rights for undeveloped parcels may be abandoned, and that Canal Winchester may require developer-paid city fees as part of future development agreements.
The Board approved the resolution by roll call as part of the regular voting agenda. Staff indicated the action is intended to align county utility records with the annexation and to protect revenue and service expectations during future development discussions; the minutes do not include parcel legal descriptions or a fiscal impact statement.
