The following comments and <br />recommendations were submitted: <br />Per IC 36-7-3-13, 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 <br />not 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 <br />other public building or place. The vacation would not hinder the use of a public right of <br />way by the neighborhood in which it is located or to which it is contiguous. <br /> <br />Therefore, the Board of Public Works submitted a favorable recommendation for the vacation <br />of this alley. If you still wish to pursue this alley vacation, please bring this BPW Recommendation Packet <br />to the City Clerk’s Office, located on the 4th floor of the County-City Building. Alley/Street vacations <br />require a presentation to the Common Council, approval of an ordinance, and certification of the <br />ordinance from the Mayor. The property then must be recorded with the Recorder’s Office to ensure that <br />your 50% ownership of the property is appropriately transferred to your name. If you have any questions <br />about how the alley vacation will affect your property taxes, please contact the Auditor’s Office. <br /> <br />If you have any further questions, please call this office at (574) 235-9251. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />/s/ Theresa Heffner <br /> <br />Theresa Heffner, Clerk <br /> <br /> <br />Enclosures <br />TH/lh <br /> <br />
