PACHECO, DIRECTOR TITLE AN ORDINANCE VACATING THE SIDEWALK AND UTILITY EASEMENT LOCATED WITHIN LOT 5, BLOCK 1, HISTORIC ARKANSAS RIVERWALK PROJECT, FILING NO. ONE ISSUE Should City Council approve the proposed vacation of the sidewalk and utility easement located within Lot 5, Block 1, Historic Arkansas Riverwalk Project, Filing No. One? RECOMMENDATION The Planning and Zoning Commission, at their February 8, 2012 Regular Meeting, voted 6-0 to recommend approval. BACKGROUND The Historic Arkansas Riverwalk Project, Filing No. One was platted in July 1999. At the time, the right-of-way was insufficient to provide the space necessary for appropriate handicap ramps and several utilities were located across this portion of the site. Due to the current construction of the addition to Memorial Hall, the utilities will be relocated out of the easement. In addition, the streetscape along Grand Avenue, as well as the Grand Avenue and Main Street intersection, will be reconstructed and will allow for the installation of the handicap ramps within the street right-of-way. Once these two reconstruction projects are complete, the easements are no longer necessary. FINANCIAL IMPACT None.
