Alley vacation near 373 West American Avenue (public hearing)
Continued · 7-0
The Council held a hearing on closing a city-owned alley next to four properties, three of them owned by the petitioner (the applicant) and the fourth by an owner who also supports the vacation. Staff said the alley cannot serve as a mid-block connection because the 900 South viaduct lies directly south. There was no public comment, and the Council referred action to a future meeting.
