BACKGROUND:

Ordinance 1st Reading: 6/0 (Councilman Montgomery absent)

Ordinance 2nd Reading: 7/0

The owner, Jorge Rivera Garcia is seeking approval to vacate the easterly 5’ of a 10’ Utility easement.  The easement is located on the west of Lot 1, Block 8.  In 2018, the owner constructed a foundation and pad for a future garage.  The plot plan indicated the foundation and pad to be outside of the limits of the existing easement, however the foundation was constructed about 4’ into the existing easement.  No further construction has taken place until the matter of the easement has been resolved.

A locates request indicate the area is free of existing utilities.  Any future development to the west would require additional easements for future utilities.

This case was approved by the Planning Commission during their May 28, 2019, meeting with a vote of 6/0.
ACTUAL COST VS. BUDGET:
