The following comments and recommendations were submitted from <br />the Engineering Division, Area Plan Commission, Community & Economic Development, Fire <br />Department, Police Department, Solid Waste Division and the City Attorney's Office: <br />Area Plan stated the vacation would not hinder the growth or orderly development of the <br />unit or neighborhood in which it is located or to which it is contiguous. The vacation would not <br />make access to the lands of the aggrieved .person by means of public way difficult or <br />inconvenient. The vacation would not hinder the public's access to a church, school or other <br />public building or place. The vacation would not hinder the use of a public right-of--way by the <br />neighborhood in which it is located or to which it is contiguous. <br />Engineering stated that neighborhood traffic has c1•eated a path across vacant land to use <br />the subject alley for better access to their property than other rights of way provide. The <br />vacation of this alley could hinder the redevelopment of the area. Neighbors to the west need to <br />sign an ingl•ess/egress agreement. <br />You will need a radius map showing properties within 150' of the proposed vacation and <br />an executed Cross Access Agreement fol• your petition to the Common Council.
