BACKGROUND:
Ordinance First Reading:  7/0
Ordinance Second Reading: 7/0

West Properties, LLC (the applicant) is requesting approval to vacate a portion of public right-of-way known as Elon Avenue and a portion of sewer right-of-way adjacent to the south boundary of Lot 1, Block 10, Rolling Hills Subdivision for commercial development purposes.

The portion of public right-of-way known as Elon Avenue being requested for vacation is approximately 30 feet by 157 feet and is located directly west and adjacent to Lot 1, Block 10, Rolling Hills Subdivision, addressed as 1401 E. 7th St. Elon Avenue was originally platted as public right-of-way, but the portion adjacent to Lot 1, Block 10, Rolling Hills Subdivision was never improved as a public street.

The portion of sewer right-of-way being requested for vacation originally contained a sanitary sewer main.  The sanitary sewer main was relocated  from the sanitary sewer right-of-way to West Seventh Street in 2010/2011.  The sanitary sewer right-of-way in this area is no longer necessary.  This portion of sewer right-of-way being requested for vacation is located directly south and adjacent to Lot 1, Block 10, Rolling Hills Subdivision, addressed as 1401 & 1403 E. 7th St.

Lot 1, Block 10, Rolling Hills Subdivision is zoned C-1, General Commercial District.  The vacated Elon Ave right-of-way and the vacated sanitary sewer right-of-way shall be zoned C-1, General Commercial District upon approval of this vacation request.

The applicant will submit a Final Plat that incorporates the vacated areas into the existing Lot 1, Block 1, Rolling Hills Subdivision.
