body
BACKGROUND:
The applicant, Hillsboro Marketplace Investments, LLC, is seeking approval for vacation of easements No. 2 and No. 3, for the vacation of two portions of a 12-foot Water Easement located within a portion of Parcel “A” of the Hillsboro Center Plat.
The property owner wishes to add outparcel development and make site modifications to the overall Marketplace at Hillsboro plaza (see east outparcel retail building site plan applications). As such, the proposed development creates conflicts with portions of the identified utility easements.
DISCUSSION:
The City’s Development Review Committee (DRC) has reviewed this request in conjunction with the proposed site plan. The City’s Utilities and Engineering Department will coordinate with the applicant on the relocation of utilities that may be located within the vacated portions of the easements and the recordation of any new easements that may be necessary for relocated utilities. As required, the applicant has provided correspondence from affected utility companies. City staff finds that the above described easement vacation is in the best interests of the public welfare.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of this resolution.
FISCAL IMPACT: N/A
