Agenda Item Brief:

Triple L, LLC has made a request to the City of Sparks to vacate a portion of 20th and 21st Streets north of C St and south of Prater Way and a portion of C Street between 20th and 21st Streets (see attached site Plan).  Staff has researched the request and is of the opinion that the public will not be materially injured by the proposed abandonment and recommends approval.



Background:

Triple L, LLC is the owner of property adjacent to the vacation of right of way.  Triple L, LLC would utilize the additional property for enhancements to the existing parcel and potentially install security fencing. 



Analysis:

The legal description (see attached) for the requested right of way vacation has been reviewed by staff and has been found acceptable.  Each owner of property abutting the proposed vacation has been properly notified via certified mail as required by NRS 278.480 (4) (a).  The extent of the proposed vacation and the date of the public hearing were published in the Reno Gazette Journal as required by NRS 278.480 (4) (b).  Reservations of easement (per NRS278.480 (6)) are included where applicable.  Staff finds that the public will not be materially injured by the proposed right of way vacation and recommends approval.



Alternatives:
  1. The City Council could approve the request for right of way vacation as outlined by Staff.
  2. The City Council could deny the request for vacation and provide direction to the City Manager.


Recommended Motion:

I move to approve the request from Triple L, LLC to the City of Sparks to vacate right of way as outlined by staff.
