Case No. 10-00295ac
CLOSING, VACATING, ABANDONING AND DISCONTINUING FOR PUBLIC
USE AN ALLEY LOCATED BETWEEN NORTH MIAMI AVENUE AND
NORTHEAST MIAMI COURT AND BETWEEN NORTHEAST 17" STREET
AND NORTHEAST 17" TERRACE.
Pursuant to Section 55-15 (c) of the Miami City Code, the Planning Department
has reviewed the proposed easement vacation and closure to determine whether
it is in the public interest, or whether the general public would benefit from the
vacation of the right-of-way.
The following findings have been made:
• It is found that this application was presented to the Plat and Street
Committee and the tentative Plat was approved with conditions.
• It is found that the alley is narrow and obstructed with utility poles and
equipment and it's used for illegal dumping.
• It is found that the proposed alley vacation will not affect the core service
activities. The Fire Department requests a separate agreement/covenant to
assure adequate Fire/Rescue Department access to the site.
Based on these findings, the Planning Department recommends
approval of the request.
