COUNCIL MEETING DATE:

SUBJECT: AN ORDINANCE VACATING RUSS AVENUE, NORTH OF EAST ARROYO
AVENUE
SUMMARY:
The applicant is requesting to vacate the portion of Russ Avenue that is located north of East
Arroyo Avenue.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
None.
BACKGROUND:
The applicant is requesting a vacation of Russ Avenue located between Lot 10, Block 3, Laibach
rdrd
3 Filing and Lot 1, Block 4, Laibach 3 Filing. The existing platted street connects Northern
Avenue to the alley behind Lots 1 through 4 and to the north of Lot 5. Russ Avenue, north of
Arroyo Avenue was never constructed due to the elevation differences in Russ Avenue. The
vacation of the street will allow the applicant to utilize the vacated street for private use and future
development.
The application for the street vacation was sent to the Public Works Department, Transportation
Department, and the utility companies for their response and comment. There are no responses
from the referral agencies in opposition to the proposed vacation. There are no utilities located
within this portion of Russ Avenue.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
There are no financial implications for the City as this roadway was not improved or
maintained by the City.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning and Zoning Commission, at their July 11, 2018 Regular Meeting, voted 7-0 to
recommend approval.
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
The Planning Department sent out Notice of the Planning and Zoning Commission Public Hearing
to all property owners located within 300 feet of the subject property.
A Public Notice poster was placed on the subject property 15 days prior to the Public Hearing.
ALTERNATIVES:
If City Council does not approve this Ordinance, the current street would remain and would
impede the applicant’s ability to develop the property.
Upon request of City Council, the Ordinance could be returned to the Planning and Zoning
Commission for consideration of proposed modifications.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of the Ordinance.
