Committee reviews street‑vacation request for small right‑of‑way near old JVC site
City staff described a request from property owners to vacate a narrow remainder of public right‑of‑way between JVC Road and the interstate near the old JVC facility south of Jaybird Road.

Speaker 6 (Mike), presenting the item, said the owners “want to vacate that segment of road” and noted there is no visible remnant of a road. He described the tract as about 50 feet wide and roughly 200 feet long and said vacating it would remove a public‑road encumbrance that prevents certain uses of the land. “It just goes away,” Speaker 6 said, referring to the right‑of‑way restriction.

Committee members asked whether any private or public improvements would be affected; Speaker 6 said there is no way to connect the strip to the interstate and that the right‑of‑way therefore lacks practical value to the city. No objections were raised in the excerpted discussion, and Speaker 6 said he would not be presenting the item if there were substantial negative considerations.

Next steps: the item was presented as informational during introduction; formal action (public hearing or ordinance) would follow the normal vacation process, including staff review and any notices required by municipal code.
