Service court ITEM BEFORE THE BOARD The item before the Board is that of making a recommendation to the City Commission on the proposed abandonment of the alley right-of-way located south of and adjacent to the former VFW building at 5 SE 2 nd Avenue. This right-of-way abandonment is being pr ocessed pursuant to LDR Section 2.4.6(M), Abandonment of Rights-of-Way. BACKGROUND The alley right-of-way was dedicated by the plat of the Town of Linton, which was recorded in Plat Book 1, Page 3, on March 25, 1910. The proposed alley abandonment area is the re maining right-of-way following abandonment of the east portion of the alley to accommodate the redevelopment of the Grove Square project. The alley currently serves as a service court for the adjacent properties to the north and south. ABANDONMENT DESCRIPTION The subject alley right-of-way is 16 feet wide by 47.7 feet long and is located between the former VFW building and the iL Bachio restaurant. ABANDONMENT ANALYSIS Pursuant to LDR Section 2.4.6(M)(1), public ri ght-of-way may be abandoned (returned) to the adjacent property to the same degree in which it was originally obtained (i.e. property dedicated exclusively from a single parcel shall be returned to that pa rcel; property dedicated through subdivision shall be divided at the center lin e and returned equally to abutting parcels.) As previously stated, the subject alley right-of way was dedicated by the plat of the Town of Linton and the owner of the adjacent property to th e north (the Applicant) is entitled to the north half of the abandoned area. The south half of the abandoned right-of-way will go to the owner of the property to the south which contains the iL Bachio restaurant. The &LW\¶V(Q vironmental Services Department (ESD) has reviewed the request and has no issues with the abandonment provided a utility ea sement is retained over the entire abandoned area to accommodate existing utilities. Likewise, Florida Public Utilities, AT&T, Comcast and FP&L all stated that they do not object to the abandonment, provided the easement is retained. REQUIRED FINDINGS Pursuant to LDR Section 2.4.6(M)(5), prior to any right-of-way abando nment being approved, the following findings must be made: A) That there is not, nor will th ere be a need for th e use of the right-of-way for any public purpose. The existing alley right-of-way is not the pr imary access for the adjacent properties to the north and south, which fr ont directly on SE 2 nd Avenue. Since the east portion of the right-of- way was abandoned earlier to accommodate the redevelopment of the Grove Square project, the alley dead-ends at the edge of the ad jacent property to the east. It is currently
