CASE NUMBER AND TITLE:
14.021V
Vacation of a 20 Foot Wide Alley on Unplatted Property included in the Annexation Plat for the Longmont Addition
APPLICANT/OWNER:
Michael and Krista Bundy
AGENT:
Michael Bundy
CASE SUMMARY:
The property owner is requesting that a 20 foot wide undeveloped alley be vacated and incorporated equally into the two (2) adjacent parcels. The alley right-of-way and two (2) adjacent parcels are currently unplatted.  
CASE BACKGROUND:
The undeveloped alley and two (2) adjacent parcels were originally established by a Deed that was recorded in 1969. The property was annexed as part of the Annexation Plat for the Longmont Addition in 1982.  The City no longer needs the alley and is willing to deed half the property back to the adjacent landowner on the north and half to the adjacent landowner on the south. The applicant has agreed to submit a Final Plat to incorporate the vacated alley into the adjacent parcel to the north and the adjacent parcel to the south. The owner has completed utility locates on the property and no utilities were located in the land area to be vacated. All City Divisions and other utility companies have been notified of this vacate request and no concerns have been expressed.   
CASE REQUIREMENTS:
1.   The applicant shall submit a Final Plat to equally incorporate the alley into the two (2) adjacent parcels.        

2.   Final approval of the Vacation is contingent upon the Final Plat being approved by City Council.        

3.   The Ordinance, Exhibit “A” Map, and Deed shall be recorded at the Campbell County Clerk’s Office upon approval of the Vacation and Final Plat by City Council.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the Vacation of a 20 foot wide undeveloped alley, located on Unplatted Property in the NE1/4 SE1/4 Section 22, Township 50N, Range 72W, as shown on the Exhibit “A” Map, subject to all Planning requirements.
