Overview Last August the City Council approved a site plan to construct a 163-unit apartment complex at 815 First Street South and 31 Ninth Avenue South. The property was also replatted into one lot. When the plat was reviewed by Henn.�in County, the County noted that a utility easement reinained. The plat was filed in December with the easement remaining. In order for the development to proceed, the utility easement needs to be removed. � Primary Issues to Consider • What is the zoning of the property, and how has the Comprehensive Plan designated the subject site? • Is the street needed for a public purpose? • What is the staff reconunendation for the vacation? • What��ere the responses from the utility companies regarding the vacation? Supporting Documents • Analysis of Issues • Resolution RZ�3-1 • Ordinance 13-1 U60 � � Nancy Anderson, AICP City Planner � Financial Impact: $ N/A Budgeted: Y/N Source: Related Documents (CIP, ERP, etc.): Notes: VAC13-1 ,�--� Page 2 Primarv Issues to Consider. • What is the zoning of the property, and how has the Comprehensive Plan designated the subject site? The zoning of the property is Mixed Use with an overlay zoning of Plaruled Unit Developinent. The Comprehensive Plan designation is Mixed Use. • Is the street needed for a public purpose? The public works department reviewed the proposed vacation and detennined that there are no utilities in the easement. • What is the staff recommendation for the vacation? Staff is recommending appr� al of the vacation. • What were the responses from the utility companies regarding the vacation? ^ The utility companies were notified and none had an objection to the vacation of i�ie easement. Alternatives. 1. Recoirunend approval of the vacation of the easements. By recommending approval of the vacation, the City Council will consider a recommendation of approval. 2. Recoinmend denial of the vacation of the easements. By recommending denial of the vacation, the City Council will consider a recorrunendation of denial. If the Planning Commission considers this alternative, findings will have to be identified that support this alteinative. 3. Continue for further information. If the Planning Cominission indicates that fiu-ther information is needed, the item should be continued. '-� GALLERY FLATS C.R.DOC.NO.
