RE:

Vacation of Unused Utility Easement – Prairie Wind Addition

May 10, 2011 City Commission Agenda

 

On May 10, 2011 the City Commission will hold a public hearing to consider a request by Tenants to Homeowners, Inc. to vacate a 10 ft. utility easement in the western portion of Lot 1, Prairie Wind Addition, currently addressed 2620 Haskell Avenue.   Westar no longer services a street light by this easement.  The vacation request is to accommodate a development plan which proposes to have a building where the existing utility easement resides.

 

All utilities, as well as property owners within 200 feet, were notified.  No objections were received.

 

Action Requested

Open public hearing and, pending discussion, approve order of vacation.

 

Respectfully submitted,

Charles F. Soules

Director of Public Works
