SECTION:
CONSENT CALENDAR
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council adopt a Resolution ordering the summary vacation of an easement for public utility purposes located at the southeast corner of Euclid Avenue and East D Street.
THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:
Invest in the Growth and Evolution of the City's Economy Focus Resources in Ontario's Commercial and Residential Neighborhoods Invest in the City's Infrastructure (Water, Streets, Sewers, Parks, Storm Drains and Public Facilities)
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is not a direct fiscal impact associated with this action. The City did not pay to acquire the subject easement. The Developer has paid the applicable processing fees to defray any City cost to process this request.
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:
The applicant, Hutton Companies, has requested that the City vacate the existing public utility easement, as shown on Exhibit 1, to facilitate the development of the area.
The subject easement is not needed for any present or future public utility purposes. There are currently no existing public utilities within the easement and the easement is determined to be excess.
Section 8333(c) of the California Streets and Highways Code authorizes the City to summarily vacate (by Resolution with no public hearing) a public service easement that has been superseded by relocation or determined to be excess, and there are no public facilities located within the easement.
This summary vacation meets the California Government Code, Streets and Highways Code, Ontario Municipal Code, and has been reviewed and approved by the City Engineer. 19 CASCEngineering and Consulting
