The land to be vacated is to be utilized as part of proposed improvements to the former City Center Hotel. State Statutes require that the public hearing be held no less than 40 days after the introductory resolution which would set the public hearing date for this request no earlier than the Council's October 23rd meeting. ANALYSIS The new hotel owners approached the City to vacate the subject piece of Ceape Avenue right-of-way as part of their renovation of the former City Center Hotel. Plans provided show construction of a decorative sidewalk along an oversized area of Ceape Avenue which, as designed, would encroach through this section of Ceape Avenue. Since the Department of Public Works does not permit the use of decorative paving features within the ROW, and since this area of Ceape Avenue is not necessary for right-of-way purposes, staff is recommending to vacate this portion of ROW but to retain utility easements in the vacated area. FISCAL IMPACT None anticipated. RECOMMENDATION The Plan Commission approved of this request at its September 4, 2012 meeting. Approved, City Manager ITEM: PARTIAL STREET VACATION OF CEAPE AVENUE LOCATED ADJACENT TO 1 N. MAIN STREET Plan Commission meeting of September 4, 2012 GENERAL INFORMATION Applicant/Owner: City of Oshkosh Actions Requested: The applicant requests the vacation of a portion of Ceape Avenue public right-of-way. 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 a triangular section, approximately 444 square feet of the southwestern portion of Ceape Avenue right-of-way. The land to be vacated is to be utilized as part of proposed improvements to the former City Center Hotel by Oshkosh Investors, LLC and the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh Foundation. Subject Site Existing Land Use Zoning Public Right-of-Way C-3DOPD Adjacent Land Use and Zoning Existing Uses Zoning North Commercial (U.S. Bank) C-3DOPD South Commercial (Former City Center Hotel) C-3DOPD East Ceape Avenue Right-of-Way C-3DOPD West Commercial (Hotel Parking Ramp/City Center) C-3D0 Comprehensive Plan Land Use Recommendation Land Use 10 Year Land Use Recommendation Mixed Downtown 20 Year Land Use Recommendation Mixed Downtown ANALYSIS Oshkosh Investors, LLC and the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh Foundation approached the City to vacate the subject triangular piece of Ceape Avenue right-of-way as part of their renovation of the former City Center Hotel. Plans provided show construction of private decorative sidewalk along Ceape Avenue which, as designed, would encroach into the right-of-way of Ceape Avenue. Upon review, staff determined that this section of right-of-way is no longer needed and supports this vacation request. Whenever the City vacates a portion of right-of-way, typically half of the vacated land goes to one adjoining property and the other half goes to the opposite adjoining property. In this case, Oshkosh Investors, LLC will receive the "southeastern half of the land in this vacation and the City will receive the northwestern half, as the City is the other adjoining land owner to this vacation. Since the City has no use for their portion of the vacation and is land needed for the proposed private sidewalk for the hotel, the City has agreed to dispose the City's portion of the vacation to the hotel property (Item B). The Department of Public Works has reviewed the proposed vacation and does not see any issues or concerns with the request as the right-of-way is not needed, but requires retention of full utility easements within the former right-of-way. RECOMMENDATION/CONDITIONS Staff recommends approval of the partial vacation of Ceape Avenue as requested with the following condition: 1) The City retains full utility easements within the vacated right-of-way. The Plan Commission approved of the partial street vacation of Ceape Avenue as requested with conditions noted. The following is the Plan Commission's discussion on this item. Mr. Nau presented the item and reviewed the site and surrounding area. He explained that the right-of-way serves no purpose to the City and the City has no issues with the vacation request. Typically half of the vacated land goes to each adjoining property owner however, in this case, the City has no use for their portion of the vacation and the land is needed for the proposed private sidewalk for the hotel. Therefore the City has agreed to dispose of the City's portion of the vacation to the hotel property with the condition that the City retains full utility easements within the vacated right-of-way. Motion by Vajgrt to approve the partial street vacation of Ceape Avenue located adjacent to 1 N. Main Street and to approve the land disposition of a portion of vacated Ceape Avenue with the following conditions: 1) The City retains full utility easements within the vacated right-of-way. Seconded by Bowen. Motion carried 8-0.
