When vacating the portion 5 Corners was interested it, it was decided it would be preferred to not leave an odd area of dedicated ROW that doesn't have a logical purpose. Here are some points to share with the Board • The primary reason for including it would be for ROW clean up and to avoid confusion. The property has direct access to the side street and alley. • Per the rules of vacation, that portion would go to the adjacent property owner (i.e the house at the corner) unless documentation was provided that it was solely taken from another parcel during the original platting. • We do not require consent from the adjacent property owner when there is a ROW vacation. However, we have asked the developer to reach out to the property owner. • The property owner will receive a certified notice when this is filed with the Council. • There may be a slight change in taxes, but it's not likely to be significant. • The adjacent property owner is already required to maintain this portion of property, so there will be no increase in responsibility. The developer is fully aware of the intent. It was a suggestion, not a requirement, but would make sense to handle at this time instead of addressing again in the future. I hope that helps.
