Summary

The board approved abandonment of an 8-foot platted alley and a 22-foot city strip near East Second Court for property owned by Ronald and Dorothy Hamlin, but residents raised concerns about unclear property lines and the need for surveys.

The Panama City Planning Board voted 5-0 to approve a request to vacate an 8-foot platted alley and a 22-foot strip of city-owned land south of East Second Court between Sherman Avenue and Main Avenue, a parcel associated with Ronald and Dorothy Hamlin.

Planning staff said the city does not retain utilities or infrastructure in the strip and described the request as part of a broader cleanup of unused right-of-way. The applicant’s representative, Denise Rowan, said the city had determined it had no use for the right-of-way and that her client sought abandonment so title could be clarified.
