SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION:
Title
Approve the request from property owners on Smallwood Circle to vacate a portion of Right-of-Way of Wildwood Street that abuts their property and pass Ordinance 9032-17 on first reading. (VAC2017-02)
Body
SUMMARY:
Wildwood Street is a platted and undeveloped Right-of-Way that runs along the west side (rear) of the applicant’s properties. Wildwood Street, although undeveloped, still creates fence and landscape restrictions on the adjacent properties. The property owners have requested the City vacate the portion of Wildwood Street that abuts their properties, in order to install desired fencing and landscaping.
The City of Clearwater will retain a Drainage & Utility Easement on the entire portion to be vacated, to support existing and future facilities. All City departments have reviewed and do not object. The applicant has received all required “Letters of No Objection” from private utility companies.
