Council adopts order legalizing portions of Bear Creek Road right‑of‑way
Summary
Council adopted an order to legalize 0.53 acres of previously undefined right‑of‑way along Bear Creek Road between Cessna Drive and the eastern urban growth boundary; no objections were reported and staff will record survey monuments.
Council opened and closed a public hearing and adopted an order completing the legalization of Bear Creek Road between Quail Run (near the airport) and the eastern urban growth boundary.
Senior project engineer Sinclair Burr told council that gaps in historic dedication left small areas of roadway without an explicit legal right‑of‑way. The legalization process surveyed eight properties along the corridor, posted stakes in the field to show proposed legal lines and notified owners. Staff said no property owners objected before the notice deadline; Burr noted a voicemail that arrived shortly before the meeting that staff is following up on.
Survey monumentation and a formal legal description will be filed after the order; the ordinance implements the legal right‑of‑way to align the recorded ownership with the actual existing roadway and allow the city to proceed with planned upgrades and urbanization (sidewalks, shared use paths) to the UGB.
Action: Council adopted the order to complete legalization of Bear Creek Road; staff will record the survey and place monuments on the centerline as required.
