The proposed vacated alleyway has <br /> an estimated market value of$800.00 which will be paid to the City. A second appraisal is not <br /> required. <br /> 5. The formal vacation of this alleyway does not appear that it will have an adverse affect on the general <br /> public. <br /> STAFF RECOMMENDATION <br /> 1. Staff recommends approval of the alleyway vacation with the following conditions: <br /> a. A blanket easement for the vacated alleyway shall be maintained for utilities and <br /> ingress/egress for the general public. <br /> b. The alleyway must be maintained in a condition consistent with the remainder of the <br /> alleyway to the south. <br /> PLAN COMMISSION ACTION <br /> 1. The Administrative Policy of the City of Decatur requires that property vacation requests be <br /> submitted to the Plan Commission for a public hearing. Although a Plan Commission <br /> recommendation is not required, a motion to forward the vacation request of Calendar Number 15- <br /> 40 to the City Council with a recommendation for approval is suggested. <br /> The above report constitutes the testimony and recommendation of the Planning and Sustainability <br /> Division, Department of Planning and Building Services, City of Decatur. <br /> Suzan M.
