GRAHAM R - -
HUMAN ROBIS 'The Director of Public Works, with the consent of the St. Louis-San Francisco
SANTRAailroad, has requested that the City vacate only that portion of N. E. llth
wALts Street in the 200 and 300 blocks crossing the St. Louis-San Francisco Railroad
tracks between North Commerce and North ,zones Streets, as shown on the attached
WOOD map.
MUM Subject right-of-way, acquired by dedication, is open and unpaved and contains
sanitary sewer, water, and telephone facilities. The agencies responsible for
u'RIE these public facilities request the vacated right-of-way be retained as a utility
easement. This request was initiated by the Director of Public Works in con-
junction with the railroad in order to eliminate hazardous and hard to maintain
railroad crossings.
The City Plan Commission has reviewed this request and recommends that an
ordinance be adopted vacating subject 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.
