Meade St. and Eclipse Place running <br />North of Westmoor St. to East/West Alley (Preliminary Review) <br />Dear Ms. Franton: <br />The Board of Public Works, at its July 23, 2019, meeting, reviewed comments by the Engineering <br />Division, Area Plan Commission, Community Investment, Fire Department, Police Department, <br />and the Street Department. <br />Per IC 36-7-3-13, the vacation was found to meet all the criteria. The Engineering Division <br />recommended you eliminate the alley approach by hiring a private contractor bonded with the <br />City to tear out the approach, replace with curb, and establish a tree lawn in accordance with the <br />City Standards and Specifications. It was noted re-establishing a curb and tree lawn would result <br />in improved street drainage, improved aesthetics of the streetscape within the neighborhood, and <br />leave no doubt the alley is vacated with the approach removed. <br />Therefore, the Board of Public Works submitted a favorable recommendation for the vacation of <br />this alley, subject to Engineering's recommendation being completed. <br />Please contact the Permit Department at 574 2 5-92 4 prior to Vicking tip, your radius <br />map. You will need a radius map showing properties within 150' of the proposed vacation for <br />your petition to the Common Council. Once you pick up the radius map, proceed to the City <br />Clerk's office for your alley vacation packet. <br />Sincerely, <br />1. i,nda M. Martin, Clerk <br />GARY A. • • DoRAu <br />
