ANALYSIS
Case No. 2006-01055ac
CLOSING, VACATING, ABANDONING AND DISCONTINUING FOR PUBLIC
USE THE ALLEY LOCATED ALONG THE SOUTH SIDE OF NORTHEAST
18th STREET BETWEEN NORTHEAST 4th STREET AND NORTH BAYSHORE
DRIVE.
Pursuant to Section 55-15 (c) of the Miami City Code, the Planning Department has
reviewed the proposed public right-of-way 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. (See attached analysis).
• It is found that the vacation of the alley will allow a unified development site for a
previously approved mixed use project more specifically knows as "On the Park".
• It is found that the closure of the alley and its replacement with a public and emergency
access will keep the service activities provided by the original alley.
• It is found that the proposed easement vacation comply with Section 55-15 (c) of the
Miami City Code for public benefit since the proposal will not affect the core service
activities.
Based on these findings, the Planning Department recommends approval of the
request.
