Committee approves vacation plat by consent to consolidate parking for Child Guidance and Family Solutions

Summary

The committee approved, on the consent agenda, a vacation plat for a remnant of North Canton Road created by intersection realignment to consolidate parking for Child Guidance and Family Solutions; the plat was described by Mister Antonucci and noted as a council request involving Councilman McKittrick.

The Akron Planning and Economic Development Committee approved, on the consent agenda, accepting a vacation plat for a remnant of right-of-way at the corner of North Canton Road and Gilchrist Road.

Mister Antonucci explained the plat represented a remnant right-of-way resulting from a realignment of the intersection and said "there's no public purpose for that section, and it will help consolidate the parking lot and property for Child Guidance and Family Solutions." He also said the action reflected a council request involving Councilman McKittrick.

Committee members recommended handling the matter by consent; the Chair called the vote and multiple members said "Aye." The transcript records the consent votes but does not provide a roll-call mapping of each "Aye" to individual councilmembers at the time of the vote. The Chair then closed the Planning and Economic Development Committee meeting.

The transcript indicates the plat was already circulating for signatures, and the committee's consent recommendation will allow the administrative process to continue toward execution and any required recording of the vacation plat.
