Peterson, 4801 Westridge Avenue, on behalf of property owners in Blocks 51 and 52, Ridglea Addition, has requested that the City vacate 10 feet of right-of-way on each side of Westridge --�•, � Avenue as follows West Side of Street: From South line of Lot 7, Block 52, Ridglea Addition, north to a point 186 feet north of the south line of Lot 3, Block 52, Ridglea Addition. East Side of Street: From South line of Lot B, Ridglea Park north- ward to the north line of Lot 43, Block 51; and also, abutting Lots 49, 68, 67, 66, 69, 79, 78 and 1, Block 51, Ridglea Addition, as shown on the attached map. Subject right-of-way of Westridge Avenue acquired by dedication is 80 feet wide. The staff has determined that 60 foot right-of-way is sufficient; therefore, there is an extra 10 feet of right-of-way on each side. There are existing electric facilities located therein. The reviewing City departments and private utility companies have no objections to this request provided the vacated right-of-way is replatted with the adjoining property and retained as an easement for utilities. The City has received a satisfactory replat. The City Plan Commission has reviewed the request and recommends adoption of an ordinance vacating the public right-of-way as requested. Recommendation It is recommended that an ordinance be adopted vacating subject right- of-way as recommended by the City Plan Commission.
