Recitals.

 

 Prior to Fountain Greens, the previous developer of the Fountainhead Subdivision caused a plat to be recorded that dedicated to the public an additional 20 feet for 25 Road right-of-way. Later with the Replat of Fountainhead Subdivision, the developer attempted to vacate this 20 feet by replat and rededicate an additional 3 feet for right-of-way. Only recently did the City become aware of this platting error. According to city regulations and state law, right-of-way cannot be vacated by replat. The applicant now requests to vacate by ordinance the 17 feet that was previously replatted.

 

 At its March 26, 2002 hearing the City Planning Commission found that the request to vacate this portion of 25 Road conforms to the review criteria as set forth in Section 2.11C and recommended approval.

 

 NOW, THEREFORE BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GRAND JUNCTION, COLORADO:

 

 City Council finds that the vacation meets the criteria as set forth in Section 2.11C of the Grand Junction Zoning and Development Code and in accordance therewith the following described portion of 25 Road is hereby vacated:
