SUMMARY
A portion of a property owner’s land along Whitman Street is encumbered by the City for right-of-way purposes. The land at issue is a small remnant piece that was inadvertently left out of a large vacation of unneeded street right-of-way approved in 1974 and has not been used by the City since. The property owner requests that the City vacate the land to facilitate the development of two single-family homes. The request submitted by the property owner conforms to the general guidelines of the General Plan and is consistent with the City’s Strategic Initiatives related to expanding the housing supply.
