CITY OF OKEECHOBEE 1 MORRIS DEPEW Right-of-Way Abandonment Request 12/18/2024 Staff Report Petition No. 24-002-AC . . TIVi 1RD S r A t/W . 1 , r ! • Existing Alley to be Abandoned NM ANL .1 I 11116, Ili1 c . � t- Nwz►psrT' fall 11 �A ... ilk► t '1, A11 I Exhibit A:Subject Right-of-Way Consistency with LDC Section 78-33 City LDC Section 78-33 requires that applicants for right-of-way vacation requests must address the following standards. The applicant's responses to the standards are provided below, followed by staff analysis. 1) Proposed vacation is consistent with the comprehensive plan. Applicant Response: Yes. Staff Response: The City of Okeechobee Comprehensive Plan does not provide any standards or regulations regarding abandonment or vacation of rights-of-way. 2) Right-of-way to be vacated is not the sole access to any property, and the remaining access is not an easement. Applicant Response: This is an alleyway that is located in the middle of Block 139 of the City of Okeechobee running east and west. Staff Response: This abandonment will not affect access to any other private property. Regarding the subject property, access is provided by a sole access point from NW 3`d Avenue in the middle of the block where the alley is located. Access to the property could potentially be provided via any of the abutting roadways including NW 3`d Street to the north,NW 2"d Street CITY OF OKEECHOBEE MORRIS DEPEW Right-of-Way Abandonment Request 12/18/2024 Staff Report Petition No. 24-002-AC to the south,and/or NW 2"d Avenue to the east. Staff find that the right-of-way is not the sole access to the property on Block 139,and the remaining access is not an easement. 3) Proposed vacation is in the public interest and provides a benefit to the city. Applicant Response:Yes,currently a part of the First Methodist Church of Okeechobee. Staff Response:The existing alley has not been improved to facilitate vehicle traffic. Vacating the right-of-way will transfer maintenance and liability responsibilities from the City to a private property owner,which benefits the City,allowing for public resources to be allocated elsewhere and incrementally increasing the tax base. 4) Proposed vacation would not jeopardize the location of any utility. Applicant Response:Yes,the proposed vacation will not jeopardize any utility. Staff Response:The provided survey indicates that no utilities or utility easements are currently located within the subject right-of-way. Furthermore, the applicant has obtained a signed petition including Florida Power & Light, Embarq d/b/a Century Link, Comcast Cable, Okeechobee Utility Authority, and Florida Public Utilities authorizing the vacation of the alley. Florida Power&Light,Okeechobee Utility Authority, and Comcast have required an Easement through the entire alleyway as part of their authorization. Recommendation Based on the materials provided by the applicant and the above analysis, we find that the request to vacate the subject right-of-way is consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan and the requirements of Sec. 78-33, and is not injurious to public welfare. Staff recommend approval of this request, subject to the following conditions being met prior to recording the right-of-way vacation: 1. The applicant shall submit a public utility easement for review by the City Attorney that provides access to Florida Power& Light (FPL), Okeechobee Utility Authority (OUA), and Comcast. Unless further delineated and directed by FPL,OUA,and/or Comcast,the legal description shall correctly identify the entirety of the of the area to be vacated. The City's Technical Review Committee met and reviewed this application on November 21, 2024, and recommended approval subject to all above conditions being met.

A. A. .. %1/4 . ilk , All I txhibit A:.subject Right-of-Way Consistency with LDC Section 78-33 City LDC Section 78-33 requires that applicants for right-of-way vacation requests must address the following standards. The applicant's responses to the standards are provided below, followed by staff analysis. 1) Proposed vacation is consistent with the comprehensive plan. Applicant Response:Yes. Staff Response: The City of Okeechobee Comprehensive Plan does not provide any standards or regulations regarding abandonment or vacation of rights-of-way. 2) Right-of-way to be vacated is not the sole access to any property, and the remaining access is not an easement. Applicant Response:This is an alleyway that is located in the middle of Block 139 of the City of Okeechobee running east and west. Staff Response: This abandonment will not affect access to any other private property. Regarding the subject property, access is provided by a sole access point from NW 3'd Avenue in the middle of the block where the alley is located. Access to the property could potentially be provided via any of the abutting roadways including NW 3'd Street to the north,NW 2"d Street CITY OF OKEECHOBEE MORRIS rnil DEPEW Right-of-Way Abandonment Request 11/13/2024 Staff Report Petition No. 24-002-AC to the south, and/or NW 2"d Avenue to the east. Staff find that the right-of-way is not the sole access to the property on Block 139,and the remaining access is not an easement. 3) Proposed vacation is in the public interest and provides a benefit to the city. Applicant Response:Yes,currently a part of the First Methodist Church of Okeechobee. Staff Response: The existing alley has not been improved to facilitate vehicle traffic. Vacating the right-of-way will transfer maintenance and liability responsibilities from the City to a private property owner,which benefits the City,allowing for public resources to be allocated elsewhere and incrementally increasing the tax base. 4) Proposed vacation would not jeopardize the location of any utility. Applicant Response:Yes,the proposed vacation will not jeopardize any utility. Staff Response:The provided survey indicates that no utilities or utility easements are currently located within the subject right-of-way. Furthermore, the applicant has obtained a signed petition including Florida Power & Light, Embarq d/b/a Century Link, Comcast Cable, Okeechobee Utility Authority, and Florida Public Utilities authorizing the vacation of the alley. Florida Power & Light and Okeechobee Utility Authority have required an Easement through the entire alleyway as part of their authorization. Recommendation Based on the materials provided by the applicant and the above analysis, we find that the request to vacate the subject right-of-way is consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan and the requirements of Sec. 78-33, and is not injurious to public welfare. Staff recommend approval of this request, subject to the following conditions being met prior to recording the right-of-way vacation: 1. Unless otherwise directed by FP&L,the applicant shall submit a public utility easement for review by the City Attorney that provides access to Florida Power& Light. Unless further delineated and directed by FPL, the legal description shall correctly identify the entirety of the of the area to be vacated. 2. Unless otherwise directed by Okeechobee Utility Authority,the applicant shall submit a public utility easement for review by the City Attorney that provides access to Okeechobee Utility Authority. Unless further delineated and directed by Okeechobee Utility Authority,the legal description shall correctly identify the entirety of the of the area to be vacated.
