Title
Consider an ordinance vacating, abandoning, and closing a portion of a 20 foot wide alleyway in the Washington Anderson Addition. (First Reading)*
Body
The subject property at 406 Lampasas has been developed by Gold Gals Holdings LLC as retail and event space. The owner would like to utilize the portion of the alley located between Anderson Avenue and Milam Street for their project. A portion of this alley was released by City Council on September 10, 2015 (Ordinance number 2015-1859). Since this process was started, another section of alley was identified for abandonment. Release and abandonment of this alleyway would make their development contiguous. The City has no plans or desire to improve the alley. Staff has investigated this portion of the alley and found there is a gas line present so an easement will be dedicated by plat to that utility.
Recommended Action
Staff recommends approval.
