HomeMy WebLinkAboutItem 20 - North Starnes StreetMEMOTO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: BRUNO RUMBELOW, CITY MANAGER
MEETING DATE: MAY 21, 2019
SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF RIGHT OF WAY ABANDONMENT AT 231 NORTH
STARNES STREET
RECOMMENDATION: City Council consider adopting an ordinance abandoning North Starnes
Street right-of-way and authorizing the City Manager to execute a Quit
Claim Deed to the abutting property owner, and take any necessary
action.
FUNDING SOURCE:
BACKGROUND: The owner of Lot F, JJ Hall Addition (platted in 1947) has requested the
City to abandon and vacate a 680 square foot parcel of Starnes Street
right-of-way. This parcel of land is a portion of a platted cul-de-sac in
Starnes Street that was never built. Starnes Street north of J.J. Hall
Addition, was platted, dedicated, and constructed, eliminating the need for
the cul-de-sac.
The franchise utility companies have no facilities in the area to be
abandoned, and have all signed off on the request.
Staff has reviewed the request and has no objections.
Staff recommends approval.
