Tipp City Council approved an ordinance on June 2 that vacates a portion of an existing stormwater drainage easement on two adjoining properties in the Cedar Grove subdivision (lots 4451 and 4452). City staff said the easement, though large, was not holding water and that property owners engaged an engineer who demonstrated the easement could be reduced.
Mack, the presenting city staff member, said the easement vacation was reviewed and approved by the city engineer. Council member Slagle sponsored the ordinance. Council members discussed whether similar requests could arise elsewhere in the subdivision; staff said easement vacations follow a standard review process and are not typically approved unless technical findings support reduction.
The public hearing on the ordinance had no speakers, and the council approved the ordinance by roll call as Ordinance 8 25.
Ending: Staff will complete the record changes for the easement vacation as approved by the council and update property records accordingly.
