<br />Vacation Petition from the Area Plan Commission, Police Department, Fire Department, Sanitation,
<br />Department of Economic Development and the Department of Public Works. Area Plan noted that
<br />the three properties at the southern end of the alley use the alley for access to their properties. The
<br />owners of these properties have not signed the petition to vacate this alley. Also, there are utilities

<br />would create a "T" alley, and his favorable recommendation is contingent upon the petitioner
