RESOLUTION NO. 4772
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF PASCO, WASHINGTON
SETTING 7:00 PM, SEPTEMBER 8, 2026, AS THE TIME AND DATE FOR A
PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER THE VACATION OF A PORTION OF THE
ROAD 108 RIGHT-OF-WAY DEDICATED BY AUDITOR FILE NUMBER
1918957 AND AUDITOR FILE NUMBER 1956207.
WHEREAS, from time to time in response to petitions or in cases where it serves the
general interest of the City of Pasco, the City Council may vacate rights-of-way; and
WHEREAS, a petition for vacation of a portion of the Road 108 right-of-way dedicated
by Auditor File Number 1918957 and Auditor File Number 1956207 by owners of more than two-
thirds abutting the part of the street and alley to be vacated has been submitted to the City; and
WHEREAS, the vacation process, by petition application, provided in the Pasco
Municipal Code (PMC) Chapter 12.40 requires a survey, title report, an appraisal of value, and
compensation unless waived by City Council; and
WHEREAS, the City may waive the requirements for a survey pursuant to PMC Section
12.40.110 if the location and legal description of the street or alley proposed for vacation is
sufficiently known to the City such that an accurate legal description can be determined with
certainty without a survey; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to PMC Section 12.40.120, compensation for vacated rights-of-
way, an appraisal and title report may be waived if one or more of the following are applicable:
the vacation is initiated by Council resolution; the vacation is at the request of the City; the right-
of-way to be vacated was previously determined by Council not to be essential to public traffic
circulation and is available for vacation; the grant of a substitute right-of-way has value as a right-
of-way at least equal to the right-of-way to be vacated; or the resulting benefit to the community
of the project requiring vacation outweighs the appraised value of the right-of-way to be vacated;
and
WHEREAS, the City staff is requesting that Council make a determination concerning
whether to waive the requirements of a title report, appraisal of value, and compensation pursuant
to PMC 12.40.120(2) after holding a public hearing; and
WHEREAS, PMC Section 12.40.040 requires public hearings on vacations to be fixed by
resolution, and to provide notice for such hearing which shall occur no later than sixty (60) days
after, nor earlier than twenty (20) days after, the passage of this Resolution setting a public hearing.
