Elko County approves right‑of‑way vacation for Webber parcel with 10‑ft drainage easement

Jan 7, 2026

The commission approved Resolution 2026‑02 to vacate a 50‑foot right‑of‑way requested by the Webbers, adding a condition that the owners grant a mirrored 10‑foot utility and drainage easement on the north side of the neighboring fence to protect subdivision drainage and utilities.

The full story

Corey Rydes, the county surveyor and senior planner, presented a request from the Webbers to vacate a 50‑foot public right‑of‑way that staff said was unused and difficult to improve. Rydes told the commission that utility providers were consulted; NV Energy has relocated lines away from the right‑of‑way and Frontier indicated no objection to the vacation as proposed.
