Title
Public Hearing - Appeal of Hearing Officer Decision - Abandonment of Right-of-Way - ABND 190089 - Northeast Corner of 13th Place and Palo Verde Drive
Description
Request to hold a public hearing on the Abandonment of Right-of-Way (ROW) - ABND 190089 located at the northeast corner of 13th Place and Palo Verde Drive, due to an appeal dated June 17, 2020. The Abandonment Hearing Officer approved only a portion of the abandonment request (the east - west alley), and did not approve abandonment of the north - south 14th Street portion, mainly due to opposition from the abutting property owner. The applicant has appealed the Hearing Officer's decision, specifically Stipulation 6 of the Conditional Approval, which prohibits abandonment of any portion of the 14th Street ROW. The applicant/appellant has expressed a desire that he and the neighboring property owner can hold negotiations and bring to the Council a proposed agreement to abandon at least a portion, if not all, of the 14th Street ROW included in this abandonment request. If Council wishes to allow abandonment of all or a portion of 14th Street, the course of action is to remove or approve a revision to Stipulation 6 of the Conditional Approval.
