PACHECO, DIRECTOR TITLE AN ORDINANCE VACATING THE ALLEY ADJACENT TO LOT 8 WITHIN BLOCK 1, FEARNOWVILLE SUBDIVISION GENERALLY LOCATED AT 3032 EAST 4 STREET ISSUE Shall City Council approve the proposed 15 -foot alley vacation adjacent to Lot 8, Block 1 Fearnowville Subdivision? RECOMMENDATION The Planning and Zoning Commission, at their February 11, 2009, Regular Meeting, voted 6 -0 to recommend approval. BACKGROUND The applicant proposes to vacate the entire alley adjacent to the east side of their lot in order to increase the width of the lot. Lot 8 contains a single - family home and is used for residential purposes in the 1 -2, Light Industrial Zone District. The use is allowed as a legal non - conforming use and the lot is considered a legal non - conforming lot because of its substandard width. Presently, Lot 8 is approximately 42' wide; the standard width for the 1 -2 District is 50' wide. The alley vacation will add an additional 15' of frontage, which will bring the lot into compliance with Sec. 17 -4 -2 (c) of the Pueblo Municipal Code. FINANCIAL IMPACT None.
