Planning & Zoning recommends vacating segments of 18th and F streets; council warned easements required
Summary
The Planning & Zoning Committee recommended vacating 18th Street (E–F) and F Street (17th–18th) but discussed concerns that the change could landlock property; City Attorney Andy Carothers said easements will be required before any further action.
City Attorney Andy Carothers told the council the Planning & Zoning Committee met Aug. 21 and made a non-binding recommendation to vacate 18th Street from E to F and F Street from 17th to 18th. Committee members discussed whether vacating the streets could landlock adjacent property or otherwise stifle future development.
Carothers said the city will need to secure easements and complete necessary legal steps before the council could finalize any vacation. No final council vote on the street vacation was recorded in the transcript; the discussion was presented as a committee recommendation with follow-up required to identify impacted properties and negotiate easements if needed.
Council did not take final action on the recommendation during the Aug. 21 meeting.
