Recommendation:
Adopt Resolution No. , ordering the approval to vacate the public Road Easement as dedicated on Tract Map No. 45007, filed in Book 1110, pages 17 through 26 of Official Records, and located on 35 th Street West, north of Avenue M-4, in the City of Lancaster, County of Los Angeles, State of California.
Fiscal Impact:
None.
Background:
Said public Road Easement was dedicated to the City on July 7, 1988. The vacation of the Road Easement is recommended to prevent illegal passage and trespassing in the abutting neighborhood and private property fences. The road easement is no longer needed and has been determined to serve no foreseeable use.
City sent notifications on January 25, 2024, to all utility agencies that wish to reserve easements for any existing or planned utilities within the proposed area to be vacated. To date, the City has not received confirmation from any of the agencies intending to reserve utility easement.
On February 27, 2024, the City adopted Resolution No. XX-XX, declaring its intention to vacate the subject road easement, and set March 12, 2024, as the date of the public hearing to receive testimony relative to the proposed vacation.
The public hearing will be held for the City Council to determine if there are any public objections to the City vacating a portion of the said road easement. 1 5
