 Ordinance No. 3062

VACATING AN INGRESS/EGRESS EASEMENT

WITHIN CANYON VIEW SUBDIVISION

BETWEEN SOUTH CAMP ROAD

AND LOT 6, BLOCK 3, FILING 2

Recitals.

 Any public interest that may exist in a private ingress/egress easement located between South Camp Road and the west property line of lot 6, block 3, Canyon View Subdivision Filing II, is requested to be vacated. The easement has historically served as access from South Camp Road to landlocked parcels located west and north of the now developed Canyon View Subdivision. Alternate access to these parcels has been provided over dedicated and improved roads within the Canyon View Subdivision Filings 1-6 and existing roads and access easements outside of the subdivision.

 The easement to be vacated was created in an agreement recorded in Book 1300, Page 131 - 139. The Canyon View Subdivision incorrectly references a document recorded in Book 1219, Page 562 as the origin of this easement. This particular easement is located west of the easement to be vacated and will remain in effect to provide access to Canyon View subdivision’s irrigation and stormwater detention ponds.

 At its June 9, 1998 hearing the Planning Commission found that the easement vacation conforms with the criteria in Section 8-3 of the Zoning and Development Code 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 set forth in Section 8-3 of the Grand Junction Zoning and Development Code and in accordance therewith the following described easement is hereby vacated:
