AN ORDINANCE VACATING A PORTION OF UNDEVELOPED RIGHT-OF-WAY, OF WINTERS AVENUE, WEST OF SOUTH 7^TH STREET

Recitals.

  A vacation of a portion of the undeveloped right-of-way of Winters Avenue has been requested by the adjoining property owners. The vacation request is the intention of the submitters to further develop the area along with the adjacent parcel to the south as a commercial business property. The northern half will then go to the property to the north, which is currently vacant. A fourteen foot multi-purpose easement will be provided across the eastern most edge of the southern half of Winters Avenue, which is to be vacated

The City Council finds that the request is consistent with the Growth Plan, the Grand Valley Circulation Plan and Section 2.11 of the Zoning and Development Code.  

  The Planning Commission, having heard and considered the request, found the criteria of the Code to have been met, and recommends that the vacation be approved.
