Local Public Agencies and Designing their

RW Plans


22

Local Let Program

• The National Transportation Act has made available certain Federal funding for use by local public agencies. The Federal Highway Administration designated ODOT as the agency in Ohio to administer FHWA’s Federal funding programs.

• Section 5501.03 (C) of the Ohio Revised Code provides that ODOT may coordinate its activities and enter into contracts with other appropriate public authorities to administer the design, qualification of bidders, competitive bid letting, construction, inspection, and acceptance of any projects administered by ODOT, provided the administration of such projects is performed in accordance with all applicable Federal and State laws and regulations with oversight by ODOT.


23

Federal Funding SourcesMetropolitan Planning Organizations (MPO) – 17 statewide

• Surface Transportation Program (STP)• Transportation Enhancement funds• Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ)

County Engineers Association of Ohio (CEAO)• County Local Bridge (LBR)• County Surface Transportation Program (CSTP)

ODOT • TEP, Small City Program (LPA’s outside of an MPO)• Municipal Bridge Program

• What are the differences between and ODOT RW plan and a LPA RW plan?

• Other than the project sponsor and administration …..

Absolutely Nothing Well, maybe a couple of things ….


29

Types of Title Required• Federal/State $$$ in RW – Fee only

Why? ORC prohibits charging underlying fee owner to vacate easement rights. Feds cannot recoup their investment.

• Local $$$ in RW – Can be Fee or Standard Highway Easement.

Bike trails utilizing utility corridors or area with environmental issues can use long term lease agreements or easements. FHWA will not accept license agreements.


30

• RX Forms• If ODOT is acquiring for LPA, appropriate form

must be used.• If LPA is acquiring, ODOT’s forms are optional.

• Other property rights i.e.. Channel, Slope, Temporary etc. as applicable.

A work agreement/right of entry cannot substitute for work outside of permanent RW. Owners must be compensated (FMV established by an appraisal) for use of their land.

Types of Title Required


31

•Traditional

Must use ODOT format per RW manual.•Non-Traditional

If local has standardized drawings, minor variations allowed. Mostly title block, legends and line style. Plat, property map, summary and plan sheets required.

QUESTIONS?


54

QUALITY CONTROL

• Plan Review Evaluation

• Two reviews:– Initial Evaluation when Right of Way Tracings are

accepted by the District. Depending on the project size an interim evaluation may be done.

– Secondary Post – Acquisition Evaluation completed by the acquiring agency. This evaluation can only lower the initial score not raise it.


55

QUALITY CONTROL

• Types of Review:

– Reference the March 27, 2000 Consultant Evaluation System Manual for details of ODOT’s Evaluation System.

– The System includes rating forms specific to agreement type, including Design, Environmental, Bridge Inspection, Task Order, Real Estate Acquisition and Construction Inspection. Common to all agreements is the management and timeliness criteria and scoring.


56

57

QUALITY CONTROL

• Timeliness Review– Did the Consultant meet the final contract time

requirements?

What Happens to the R/W Plans after they are submitted to ODOT

Dave Dicke, ODOT District 2 REA


65

My presentation today will:

• Review the reason we are here• Identify and expand user’s needs for good plans• Discuss reasons plans change• Who pays for changes and why• Remind you why we need quality in plans


66

The Power Of Eminent Domain Is Immense

• There is a blatant public dislike of eminent domain• Agencies are often perceived as abusing their

power when using it• Governmental Agencies Must:

– Deal honestly and with empathy


67

5th Amendment U.S. Constitution “No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or

otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb, nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, Without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use without just compensation.”


68

Eminent Domain OverviewUniform Act passed by US Congress 1/2/71. The law is called

the Uniform Relocation and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act.

Code of Federal Regulations 49 CFR 24. subpart B for Real Property Acquisition and Part C for General Relocation Requirements.

The codes amplify the Uniform Act and give more direction to an agency for carrying out the law.

State Governments must establish lead agencies. ORC 163.01 – 163.62 Ohio Administrative Code create State

law and policy. And the Governor named ODOT to be the lead agency.

Section 19, Article I, Ohio Constitution“…When taken … for the purpose of making or repairing

roads, which shall be open to the public, without charge, a compensation shall be made to the owner, in money…”


69

What does all this have to do with me and this class?

• A clear policy and procedure is in place for ODOT projects from inception to project completion.

• This P&P includes the preparation of r/w plans. • When r/w is needed your plan becomes the foundation to

which the acquisition process is built. Eminent domain may be used to conclude the process.

• The accuracy and concept of the plan cannot be flawed or the process may fail.

• As eminent domain remains a focal public issue the need for the accuracy of the plan and concept is amplified.


70

Users of R/W Plans

• Title Agents: to identify all interests to be acquired• Appraisers and Reviewers: to evaluate the effect• Acquisition Agents: to acquire the needed rights• Relocation Agents: assist in the moving of people

and property• Property Owners: to understand the issues• Attorneys: to litigate the issues and values• Surveyors: as a permanent record of the

transaction


71

Users of R/W Plans

• Real Estate Agents: for future sales• Future Right of Way Plan Designers: as a

permanent record • County Auditors: to assess taxes• County Engineers: to maintain records and roads• City Engineers/Service Directors: as reference and

for planning purposes, a permanent record• Assistant Attorney General Attorneys: litigation and

appeal


72

What causes us to change plans

• Survey error historical or by consultant error• Topo error/missing, items added after 1st survey • Construction design error requiring revision• FED/ODOT design criteria change• Owner/ODOT negotiated change• Court ordered change or as a result of settlement• Construction contractor desire/error• Constructability issues may be an error


73

Common Errors/Omissions on R/W PlansCOMMON ERRORS/OMISSIONS ON R/W PLANS

1. Topography is often outdated or not properly depicted - needs to be updated just before final

tracing submission. 2. Septic and leach lines that could possibly be affected by the project need to be shown on the

final plans. The consultant should talk to the property owner or occupant about these and other underground or hidden amenities such as wells, private water lines, security systems, etc.

3. Show all structures within 100 feet, in their proper location, with a distance to the proposed

right of way line. 4. Trees- show correct location and describe individually those that are not part of casual

growth and that add intrinsic value. 5. All items inside temporary takes but outside construction limits should be labeled “Take” or

“Do Not Disturb”. 6. Structures near a take should be marked “Do Not Disturb” and described - i.e. 1-story

commercial- with addresses shown. 7. Show all existing field drives. Replace as necessary. 8. Show all fences and gates in their proper location and describe them as to type. 9. The starting/commencing point and lead-in of legal descriptions needs to be shown on plan. 10. Metes and bounds on plans should match metes and bounds on legal. 11. Do not create encroachments by marking items “Do Not Disturb” in new permanent right of

way. 12. Be certain that all topography on right of way sheets agrees with topo on construction

plan/profile sheets, especially take/save items. 13. Current owner info is often outdated. Update per scope and Right of Way Attachment. 14. Existing private/utility easements not shown. Recording data and area overlaps to be on

Summary and/or Detail sheets. 15. Legals don’t meet County recording standards- i.e. auditors parcel splits, lead-ins,

commencing/beginning points, etc.

75

How soon do you need them?

• In most if not all cases ASAP• Changes/corrections will require rework of many

documents.• Delivery of those documents may hold up a closing or

appropriation filing, hence a project clearance, hence utility relocation

• Which effect sale date, funding, and may effect environmental issues within the plan, and may well delay completion for another year… over just a few day delay in plan delivery….. Caused by a mistake or a negotiated settlement.


76

Mistakes

Mistakes in Plan Detail Costs TIME!!! Timing in R/W is Critical to Project Delivery!


77

Survey error, plan contractor. Contractor will be liable for costs to revise.

Errors in Plan


LUC

LUC-2-32.21 2008 R/W plan with errors


LUC-2-31.55 PLAN DONE 4-30-1952


Error by not confirming existing R/W

• Used old 1952 plan for right of way• Assumed 1952 r/w was acquired by deed• Used ODOT 42 year root title as “enough”• Did not confirm types of record transfer• Owners object to ODOT assumed property line• Plans show no PRO• Plans must be corrected• Acquisition on hold, will require corrections


81

Survey error missed topo, plan contractor liable for changes


82

Plan change from negotiations/appropriation, consultant will be paid for changes This was the design before

changes.


83

Pine Street revision created during pre appropriation meetings with the owner. This required the consultant to create a new r/w plan sheet along with construction

plan changes in a matter of a few weeks. Consultant will be paid for revisions.


84

Your plans are the foundation

• Mistakes will cause the rework of those to follow you.

• Errors will cost time and money. Both the agency and your company/insurance

• Topography missed may lead to revision, under compensation and appropriation

• Your plans may be the next case reviewed by the court system…. Getter’ done, right!


85

Your plan is the beginning of a complex processLets get it right for those who follow….
