Recitals

 

A request for the vacation of a sewer easement has been submitted in accordance with the Zoning and Development Code. The applicant has requested that a small portion of the existing the 20-foot sewer easement near the southern boundary of the site be vacated as it encroaches on a proposed lot (Lot 9). This portion of the easement is to be replaced by the sewer system proposed to be constructed in Tract F and the street system within the Woodridge Subdivision. The existing 20-foot sewer easement was originally dedicated via a grant of easement recorded on March 20, 1996 in Book 2217, Pages 144-145 in the records of the Mesa County Clerk and Recorder. The vacation request is required to proceed with completion of the Woodridge Subdivision.

 

The Grand Junction Planning Commission, at its hearing on April 11, 2006 reviewed vacation request and determined that it satisfied the criteria as set forth and established in Section 2.11 of the Zoning and Development Code. The proposed vacation is also consistent with the purpose and intent of the Growth Plan.
