DISCUSSION:
John Wang with Tritech Engineering Associates, applicant on behalf of Miguel and Sylvia Sanchez, owners of the property located at 1131 E. Second Street, has submitted a request to the Public Works Department for the summary vacation of the unused easement dedicated on APNs 8326-006-010 & 011. The easement was originally intended to provide a continuous pedestrian path of travel across the property driveway approaches located along First Street (Attachment No. 3) in compliance with Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements. Said driveway aprons were relocated during the truck assembly facility construction. A new easement has already been dedicated and accepted by the City, and is in the process of being recorded.
In accordance with the approved project street improvement plan (Attachment No. 4), which depicts the final location of the First Street driveway approaches, and in compliance with CUP 4653-2016 Land Development Condition of Approval #10 included in Planning Commission Resolution No. 17-054, the property owner is requesting (i) the summary vacation of the City street easement as being no longer needed, and (ii) the approval of the Quitclaim Deed associated with the vacated easement.
The ADA path of travel easement proposed for vacation is legally described in EXHIBIT “A” and depicted on EXHIBIT “B” attached to the Resolution.
The approval and adoption of the Resolution, and the approval of the ADA path of travel easement Quitclaim Deed, will facilitate the completion of the project in accordance with the approved project plans.
