Planning commission approves closure of 15-foot alley between King Ave. and N. Liberty Hill Rd.
Summary
The Morristown Regional Planning Commission voted 9-0 to abandon an undeveloped 15-foot alley so the owner of Rusty Wallace GMC Kia can combine parcels; staff recommended approval and the motion was made by Commissioner Sabrina Seamon and seconded by Secretary Roni Snyder.
The Morristown Regional Planning Commission unanimously approved a request to abandon a 15-foot undeveloped alley lying between King Avenue and North Liberty Hill Road, allowing the owner of Rusty Wallace GMC Kia to combine property north and south of the alley into a single parcel.
Senior Planner Josh Cole introduced the request (ROWC-3024) and said staff recommended approval of the right-of-way abandonment as presented. Commissioner Sabrina Seamon moved to approve the closure; Secretary Roni Snyder seconded the motion. The commission voted 9 yes, 0 no and the motion carried.
The petition affects an undeveloped alleyway that, if vacated, will enable the adjacent parcels to be consolidated for redevelopment or replatting. The commission’s action was procedural: it approved the abandonment subject to standard documentation and recording steps required by city staff.
No public opposition or spoken objections were recorded in the meeting minutes. The commission recorded the approval and proceeded to the next agenda item.
