MINUTES PA.SCO CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING PUBLIC HEARINGS: JULY 7, 1980 MAYOR BAILIE DECLARED THE PUBLIC HEARING OPEN ON PROPOSED ANNEXATION OF THE FOLLOWING PROPERTY: THE NE QUARTER OF THE NW QUARTER OF THE NW QUARTER OF THE SE QUARTER, SECTION 25, T9N, RANGE 29 EWM, EXCEPT THE EAST 110 FEET THEREOF. It was noted that the Hearing had been duly published and posted. There were no written communications. e The City Planner outlined area in question and described it as an TsTand surrounded by City Limits. The property consists of Fireside Inn and two houses. If the Council wishes to proceed with the annexation (as recommended), the Ordinance must provide at least 45 -days in which the residents of the annexation area may file a referendum petition to require an election be conducted on the issue. The proposed Ordinance (if adopted) would annex the property as of August 23, 1980, and under the following conditions: a) Will not be required to assume existing bonded indebtedness; b) t-lill not be assigned zoning simultaneous to annexation. The proposed conditions are consistent with the most recent annexation of an unincorporated island. Following three (3) calls from Mayor Bailie for further comments from the floor, either for or against, the Public Hearing was declared closed. MAYOR BAILIE DECLARED THE PUBLIC HEARING OPEN TO CONSIDER THE VACATION OF T14AT PORTION OF 32ND AVENUE LYING BETWEEN THE SOUTH LINE OF WEST COURT STREET AND THE NORTH LINE OF TRACT 2, PLAT OF AUTO PARK, SITUATED ALL IN THE NW QUARTER OF SECTION 25, T9N, RANGE 29 EWM: It was noted that the Hearing had been duly published and posted. There were no written communications. Gary Crutchfield gave the following report: At one time, Road 32 extended all the way between Court and Sylvester Streets. When the Auto Park Plat was approved (1975) all of Road 32 above Henry Street was vacated except the 300 feet of right of way extending south of Court Street. Utilities for the Auto Park Plat were placed in easements running along the rear property line of the lots and extending north to Court Street within the remaining 300 feet of Road 32 right of way; presently contains a city water line, natural gas line and electrical/telephone lines. There may be future need to use this rinht of way for extension of a sewer line. Mr. Dietrich, owner of parcel lying west of Road 32, has requested vacation of the right of way in order to accomodate sale of the property to U -Haul Company. The PUD has co-signed the petition with the condition that any barricade of the existing driveway be of a type which will permit emergency access to their electric sub -station. Vacation of the right of way and placement of a "knock down" barricade would preclude use of the right of way for other than emergency access and allow Mr. Dietrich to include the 30 feet of right of way in his sale to U -Haul Company. Because the rear lot (of the 4 owned by D & S Auto) presently requires the Road 32 right of Way to meet public access requirements, vacation of the right of way should not occur until the owner has filed with the County Auditor a record survey establishing a single parcel (eliminating the need for Road 32). Mr. Grigg asked if the Agreement could be amended to include wording that area could be serviced? Staff replied that this was taken care of. Following three (3) calls from Mayor Bailie for further comments from the floor, either for or against, the Public Hearing was declared closed.

It was noted that the Hearing had been duly published and posted. There were no adverse communications. Mr. Gary Crutchfield reported that the owners of all lots in Block 124 have petitioned for vacation of the alley dividing said block. The alley presently contains overhead electrical service as well as an underground natural gas line. The Public Works Department recommends vacation as they will not need the alley for any municipal utility. If vacated, a full width easement should be retained to permit maintenance of existing facilities. Following three (3) calls from Mayor Bailie for further comments from the floor, either for or against, the Public Hearing was declared closed.
