SUBJECT:
Disposition: ROW Closure of an improved portion of Seven States Boulevard Public Right of Way
SUMMARY:
Consideration of an ordinance authorizing the closure, vacation and abandonment of 1.001 acres, 60-foot wide Public Right of Way, located on Seven States Boulevard near Railway and Woodlake Center, in Council District 2, as requested by Dalho Corp., for a fee of $34,760.00.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
Dalho Corp., (Petitioner) is requesting the closure, vacation and abandonment of Seven States Public Boulevard Right of Way (ROW) as shown on attached Exhibit A. Seven States Boulevard is a 60 foot-wide ROW that dead-ends into Petitioner's property; it encompasses 1.001 acres, which equates to 43,613 square feet. Petitioner owns all of the abutting property and would like to incorporate the subject right of way with their property to re-plat and re-develop land for the existing UPS facility.
The UPS facility located on Seven States Boulevard is going through an expansion process and as a result, they will be constructing a new parking facility for its employees and a temporary package sorting facility, which will carry their heavier load. They are also in the design process of a new expanded building, which will house additional workers, packages and shipping for the property. This expansion, hopefully breaking ground in early 2015, will more than double their current facility.
