AGENDA MEMORANDUM
MEETING DATE: June 12, 2006
From: Laura McElhanon, AICP
Community Development Director
Subject: Vacating a Portion of Royal Oaks Estates, 5th Addition:
K and L Development, Inc.
Staff Recommendation:
The Planning staff recommends approval of the request to vacate a portion of Royal Oaks Estates, 5th Addition Subdivision. The City of Leesburg finds no necessary public interest in the referenced easement or need for continued access to the properties that would require maintaining this vacant easement.
Analysis:
No properties
are impacted by this request since the applicant, K and L Development, Inc.
owns all the surrounding property. The vacation of this easement is
requested by the property owner surrounding
the property. The easement to be vacated is not currently used
as a public easement and is not needed for future use. No properties are impacted by
this request since the applicant, K and L Development, Inc. owns all the
surrounding property. All required utility easements are provided
by the applicant in other areas of the development where necessary.
The
Planning Commission will hold a public hearing on this matter June 8, 2006,
but it is being included in this agenda to assist the developer with timing
concerns. A report on the Planning Commission’s recommendation will be given,
orally, at the Commission Meeting.
Options:
1. Approve the request to vacate this portion of Royal Oaks Estates, 5th Addition Subdivision.
2. Disapprove the request to vacate this portion of Royal Oaks Estates, 5th Addition Subdivision.
3. Other action the Commission may deem appropriate.
Fiscal Impact:
No fiscal impact is anticipated as a result of the vacation of a portion of this subdivision.
