Board declines to act on alley-closure bill in Old Town Addition
Summary
Bill #2025-06, which would have closed an alley in Urich’s Old Town Addition (12th block, Maple & Locust between 3rd and 4th), was discussed Nov. 18 but received no motion and was not adopted.
Bill #2025-06, proposing closure of an alley in the 12th block of Urich’s Old Town Addition (bounded by Maple and Locust streets and 3rd and 4th streets), was available for public review before the Nov. 18 meeting. Mayor Randy Vogt called for a motion to close the alley after discussion, but no alderman made a motion and the bill was not adopted.
The minutes record that the item was discussed but do not include details of points made for or against the closure, any written public comments, or a formal vote tally because no motion was put forward. The board therefore took no formal action to close the alley during this meeting.
Because the minutes do not record specific objections or support, the reasons discussion did not lead to a motion are not specified. The item remains not adopted as of the Nov. 18 minutes; if proponents wish to pursue the closure again they would need to bring the bill back to a future meeting with a formal motion.
The minutes cite the alley’s location and that the bill had been made available to the public in advance; they do not list any associated easements, property owners, or legal citations related to the proposed closure.
