<br />Petition from the Police Department, Fire Department, and the Department of Economic

<br />stated that this vacation would create a dead end alley. The relief to this situation is the traffic outlet

<br />built over an alley that was never vacated. The vacation would also need to be subject to a turning

<br />rather than in this alley. Therefore, Mr. Gilot made a motion that the Board send an unfavorable
<br />recommendation to the Common Council concerning this Vacation Petition. Ms. Roemer seconded
<br />the motion which carried.
