Home My WebLink AboutItem VI PLAN COMMISSION STAFF REPORT MAY 18, 2021 ITEM IV: PARTIAL RIGHT-OF-WAY VACATION OF WILSON AVENUE EAST OF ALGOMA BOULEVARD GENERAL INFORMATION Applicants: TK Commercial Investments, LLC Property Owner: City of Oshkosh Actions Requested: The petitioner is requesting the vacation of a 50-foot wide by approximately 170-foot long segment of Wilson Avenue located east of Algoma Boulevard. Applicable Ordinance Provisions: WI State Stats. 66.1003 regulate the discontinuance of a public right-of-way. Property Location and Background Information: The area in this request involves approximately 7,745 sq. ft. of right-of-way that was dedicated as part of the E. M. Crane’s Addition to Algoma Park in 1919. Although the right-of-way was dedicated, a street was not constructed connecting to Algoma Boulevard. This street segment runs adjacent to Northside Bar and Grill at 2126 Algoma Boulevard on the south and a vacant lot to the north owned by the petitioner, TK Commercial Investments, LLC. The Petitioner is proposing a commercial development on the vacant lot and is requesting the vacation to provide additional land area for the development.

As previously stated, a street was not constructed in the proposed vacated area. However, there is active city water main and storm sewer located within the right-of-way. Sanitary sewer terminates just to the east of the subject site. If the vacation is approved, the city will continue to have access rights to maintain, replace or relocate the city facilities, as well as any private service providers that may have structures present. With this street vacation, both adjacent properties will have 25-foot wide by approximately 170 foot long area of land attached to their existing properties. With there being active utilities within the right-of-way, the land area will not developable with structures other than possible parking facilities. The vacation is designed to accommodate a future 35-foot radius cul-de-sac-bulb on the eastern side shown as an arc of a curve. If the vacation is approved, the petitioner will submit a Certified Survey Map to dedicate the remainder of the cul-de-sac bulb on the north and south sides of Wilson Avenue. Both property owners have agreed to the dedication. The Public Works Department has reviewed this request and supports the vacation. The likely hood of connecting Wilson Avenue to Algoma Boulevard is unlikely due to not being to meet street intersection separation requirements. This segment of Algoma Boulevard is also U.S. Highway 45 where from a traffic control standpoint desires limitation of connections. Public Works notes, however, that the City and any other utility facilities have the right to maintain existing utilities within the vacated right-of-way in accordance with state statutes. Staff supports the right-of-way vacation request as proposed. With there being no physical street constructed, there will be no impact on traffic. Additionally, this right-of-way vacation will provide additional area for the proposed development on the north side of Wilson Avenue. RECOMMENDATION/CONDITIONS Staff recommends approval of the partial right-of-way vacation of Wilson Avenue east Algoma Boulevard as requested.
