ORDINANCE NO. 3891

 

AN ORDINANCE VACATING RIGHTS-OF-WAY FOR 25-3/4 and G-1/2 ROADS IN THE VICINITY OF 2561 G-1/2 ROAD

WITHIN THE PROPERTY KNOWN AS THE WOODRIDGE SUBDIVISION

 

Recitals

 

A vacation of a segment of undeveloped remnant right-of-way along the alignment of 25-3/4 Road as further described above is requested. The right-of-way is not necessary for future development of the street network since it is already bisected by the developed Interstate 70 right-of-way. The properties surrounding it are concurrently being platted into a new residential project to be known as the Woodridge Subdivision and the right-of-way impedes the redevelopment of the property.

 

In addition, a vacation of a segment of G-1/2 Road right-of-way as further described above is requested. The road is currently developed but the vacation is requested in order to realign the roadway making the property more conducive to development and improving the safety and function of G-1/2 Road.

 

The City Council finds that the vacation requests are consistent with the Growth Plan and meet the criteria of section 2.11 of the Zoning and Development Code.

 

The Planning Commission, having heard and considered the requests, found the criteria of the Code to have been met and recommended that the vacations be approved.

 

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

 

The following described dedicated public rights-of-way are hereby vacated:
