DISCUSSION JACK YORK, on behalf of Continental Lumber Company and American Airlines, owners of abutting properties, have requested that the City vacate the above-described street right-of-~vay, as shown on the attached map. The subject street right-of-way, acquired by dedication, is unimproved and con- tains no utility facilities. The subject request avas initially submitted t o per- mit replatting of the unimproved right-of-way with the adjacent property in order to uti 1 i ze the total site under one overal 1 development proposal . Since that tirne, the applicant has requested and the Plan Commision has recommended that re- platting of the vacated right-of-way with abutting property be postponed until development of the site occurs.

Reviewing City departments and pri~~ate utility companies have raised no ob- jections to this request, subject to the vacated right-of-way being replatted with adjacent property at such time that development is proposed on adjacent property.
