The owner is aware that certain public facilities (i.e., street improvement, storm drain inlets, fire hydrants, etc,) will revert to private ownership, and the owner has agreed to assume all maintenance responsibility, Numerous utility main lines exist in the street and the entire right-of-way would be retained as a pubiic utiMy easement.

Please see Exhibit A, The owner has agreed to dedicate all required new public utility easements and relocate any utilities at his expense. While our design standards would not normally permit a cul-de-sac in an industrial area, they are allowed with Planning Commission and City Council approval. Staff notes that Maxwell Street, which serves the north end of this area, was originally built as a cul-de-sac. One other (Mounce Street) currently exists in the City. The owner has paid the required fees to process this abandonment. Affected utilities are being notified of this proposed abandonment, and their approval will be required prior to the final action, FUNDINGNot applicable. Prepared by F.
