RECOMMENDATION:
Waive further reading and adopt Resolution No. 04-85 setting a public hearing to
consider the vacation of a public street known as Ocotillo Drive.
DISCUSSION:
The Public Works Department received a request for the vacation of a portion of a public
street known as Ocotillo Drive on April 30, 2004 for 2 feet of public right of way. The
applicant is constructing a single family home on the corner lot which has an address of
72922 Grapevine Avenue. The vacation would decrease the area between the curb and
property line from 14 to 12 feet.
Government Code Section 65402 requires, in part, that the Planning Commission report to
the City Council that the subject vacation is in conformity with the adopted General Plan. At
their meeting of July 20, 2004, the Planning Commission, by minute motion, determined that
the subject action was in conformance with the General Plan.
Staff has reviewed the request and finds that the 2 feet of right of way along Ocotillo is not
needed.
Staff requests and recommends that the attached resolution setting a public hearing for
September 23 2004, be adopted for the street vacation.
