SUMMARY OF REQUEST The petitioner, Scott Dahlberg, is seeking to vacate an unimproved portion of 55t'' Avenue, which is located north of the property he owns at 5455 6tn Street. Vacating this unimproved street right-of- way, will provide the petitioner's lot the additional land area required in order to make the lot buildable. SUMMARY OF ANALYSIS City Staff recommends approva! of the vacation, with stipulations. Area proposed to be vacated crosshatched above Council Action / 60 Day Date City Council— May 9, 2011 60 Day Date — May 16, 2011 60 Day Extension Date —July 14, 2011 Staff Report Prepared by: Stacy Stromberg SAV #11-01 VACATION REQUEST The petitioner, Mr. Dahlberg is seeking to vacate a unimproved portion of 55th Avenue, which is located north of the vacant property at 5545 6`h Street. Vacating this unimproved right-of-way will give the petitioner the additional land area required to make the lot buildable. HISTORY In 1972, there was a vacation request submitted to vacate 55`h Avenue, north of the apartment building located at 5451 5`h Street, which is directly west of the property at 5455 6`h Street. That vacation request was denied because at the time the City's Public Works staff didn't recommend the vacation in case 55`h Avenue were to be utilized again. In 2001, a vacation request was submitted by the owners of the apartment building at 5451 5`h Street. Public Works staff determined at that time there was no longer a need to keep the right-of- way and as a result the vacation was approved. ANALYSIS The petitioner is seeking to vacate an unimproved portion of 55th Avenue NE, north of the property he owns at 5455 6`h Street. His property is currently 19,200 sq. ft. in size, which is 800 sq. ft. short of ineeting the minimum lot size requirements for the C-2, General Business zoning district regulations. Vacating this right-of-way, would give the petitioner an additional 30 ft. by 166 ft. (4,900 sq. ft) section of land, which would then increase the size of the lot to 24,100 sq. ft., therefore meeting the minimum lot size requirement of 20,000 sq. ft. The area proposed to be vacated is shown in the crosshatched area in the above aerial and is also in the attached survey. As stated above, the petitioner would gain a 30 ft. by 166 ft. strip of land and the remaining portion of the vacated 55`" Avenue would be turned back to the City. Although the petitioner doesn't have plans to develop the property at this time, he's seeking this request now so it's ready in the event that he's approached by a potential buyer or developer. In order to service this newly created property, staff has drafted a stipulation based on direction from the City's Engineering department to either install a private driveway or a public road from 7`h Street. At which time the property is developed, it will be the developer's choice as to how to access the site. In the case of the 2001 vacation of 55"' Avenue, the City required that the northerly 5 ft. of the vacated street be dedicated back to the City as an easement because there is a water main located directly north of that property, and the City needed the easement for access purposes. The petitioner's surveyor is currently locating the placement of that water main and how it may impact this vacation request. As a result, an additional stipulation may be added to this vacation request, once the surveyor has provided the necessary information to the City on placement of the water main. The City will have that information by the time this request goes before the City Council. STAFF RECOMMENDATION City staff recommends approval of the street vacation request, with a stipulation. STIPULATIONS City staff recommends if the street vacation is approved, the following stipulation be attached. 1. Access to 5455 6`h Street shall be through one of the following options, to be determined at which time the lot is developed and constructed prior to issuance of the certificate of occupancy: a. Install a public road with an off-set cul-de-sac to the property that complies with Engineering and Fire Code regulations. Conditions on this option: i. Private Hydrant installation ii. Address to be changed to 7`h Street, with proper signage visible from 7th Street for emergency purposes iii. Curb cut will be required to allow access for the lot at 5480 7`h Street (billboard lot) iv. Water, sewer, and stormwater connection fees shall be paid by owner/developer prior to issuance of a building permit. b. Install a private driveway through a license agreement prepared by the City, to the parcel that complies with Engineering and fire code regulations. Conditions on this option: i. Code compliant Fire access to allow proper turnaround ii. Private Hydrant installation iii. Driveway to be 24 ft. wide iv. Address to be changed to 7`h Street, with proper signage visible from 7`h Street fo� emergency purposes v. Curb cut will be required to allow access for the lot at 5480 7`h Street (billboard lot) vi.
