Title
Public Hearing - Abandonment of Right-of-Way - Appeal of Hearing Officer Decision - V170033C - Southeast Corner of Central Avenue and Jefferson Street
Description
Request to hold a public hearing on the Abandonment of Right- of- Way- V170033C located at southeast corner of Central Avenue and Jefferson Street due to an appeal letter dated Sept. 25, 2017. The Abandonment Hearing Officer approved the property owners request to abandon the alley as part of the redevelopment of the Barrister Building property. The appellant outlined their rationale for the appeal as 1) Downtown Abandonment Criteria were not met and 2) the RFP was considered, granted, and shared with the community as a project that did not abandon the alley and to abandon the alley now is a material change to the site plan and the proposal granted under the RFP. Furthermore, the appellant is concerned the terms of the RFP required "consistency with the Downtown Code and all other applicable regulations, guidelines, and adopted plans" and the abandonment of alleys and the addition of driveways conflicts with this clause.
