N.E. 17 Terrace is a short "dead end" street that does not provide continuous public access to other public facilities or thoroughfares and. the utility easement does not permit public access. The utility easement contains a major storm sewer pipe serving the public roadways located westerly of this development site, however, the owner shall plat a new utility easement for the benefit of the City and relocate the storm sewer pipe into this new easement at no cost to the City. 2. The street is currently partially developed and the easement is fenced prohibiting access by the general public or public service/emergency vehicles. 3. The proposed subdivision requires a new platted easement for emergency vehicle access to and through the development site. 4. The closure and vacation of the street and easement will permit a cohesive development of the site. The development includes the reconstruction of the roadways surrounding the site with wide sidewalks and landscaping that promotes pedestrian circulation and access. N.E. 17 Street is under consideration for conversion to two-way traffic flow from the current one-way configuration which will greatly enhance vehicular circulation and access. The two-way conversion will require the owner to reconstruct the surrounding roadways, including the traffic lanes and new traffic signalization, which will benefit the general public. The Plat and Street Committee unanimously recommends approval of this street and easement closure and vacation request. LJH/gc c: Francis Mitchell, Assistant Director Frank McMahon, Senior Surveyor
