(Closing and vacating an alley adjacent to property located at 1575 S. State Street)

 

      An ordinance closing and vacating an alley as a public right-of-way adjacent to property located at 1575 S. State Street, pursuant to Petition No. PLNSUB2011-00004.

      WHEREAS, the Salt Lake City Planning Commission (“Planning Commission”) held a public hearing on March 23, 2011 to consider a request made by Salt Lake Community College (Petition No. PLNSUB2011-00004) to close and vacate an unnamed City-owned alley adjacent to property located at 1575 S. State Street and to declare same as surplus property; and

      WHEREAS, at its March 23, 2011 hearing, the Planning Commission voted in favor of forwarding a positive recommendation on said petition to the Salt Lake City Council (“City Council”); and

      WHEREAS, the City Council finds after public hearings that the City’s interest in the alley described below is not necessary for use by the public as a street and that closing and vacating that City-owned right-of-way will not be adverse to the general public’s interest; and

      NOW, THEREFORE, be it ordained by the City Council of Salt Lake City, Utah:

      SECTION 1.  Closing and Vacating Street.  An unnamed City-owned alley adjacent to property located at 1575 S.

      SECTION 3.  Conditions.  This alley closure and vacation is conditioned upon the following:

1.  Payment to the City of fair market value of those portions of the alley, or its equivalent, and title to those portions of this alley shall remain with the City until sale for fair market value, or the receipt of equivalent value, in accordance with Salt Lake City Code Chapter 2.58; and

2.  The alley closure and vacation is subject to all existing rights-of-way and easements of all public utilities now located on, under or over the subject property.
