Krebs planning commission recommends vacating alley in Block 20
Summary
On Dec. 6, 2024, the City of Krebs Planning and Zoning Commission voted 5-0 to recommend vacating the alley in Block 20 between Lots 12 and Lots 1 & 2; commissioners noted property owner Mark Kirby will need to remove a building and existing slab if the vacation is approved.
The City of Krebs Planning and Zoning Commission voted unanimously on Dec. 6, 2024 to recommend vacating the alley located in Block 20 between Lots 12 and 1 & 2.
The recommendation came after a motion by Planning and Zoning Commission member Richard Cotton and a second from Commission member James Garigin. Commission member Larry Coxsey clarified a condition tied to the action, saying, “if it is approved Mark Kirby will have to tear down the building and remove the slab.” Chairman Mark Moy called the 5-0 vote; Dana DeFrange, Richard Cotton, James Garigin, Larry Coxsey and Chairman Moy were recorded as voting yes.
Why it matters: vacating an alley alters public access and property boundaries and can affect who is responsible for removing structures that block the vacated right-of-way. The commission’s minutes show the panel moved to recommend the vacation; the record does not state the next municipal procedural step or whether any conditions beyond the removal of the building and slab were imposed.
Details: The motion was recorded as passing without dissension. The minutes do not record any public comment on the alley vacation and provide no additional attachments or permit conditions beyond the clarification that owner Mark Kirby would need to remove the structure and slab if the vacation is approved.
The commission completed other business and adjourned later in the meeting.
