Adopt a Resolution vacating a portion of unimproved public right-of-way, according to Commissioner’s Minute Book (CMB) S, Page 330, of the public records of Hillsborough County, and being more particularly described in the Resolution.

The Planning Commission finds the proposed vacating consistent with the Future of Hillsborough Comprehensive Plan for Unincorporated Hillsborough County.

Although there are currently drainage ditches within the subject right-of-way, Public Works Stormwater has confirmed that adequate drainage will be provided through the proposed stormwater system in future redevelopment plans thus no drainage easement is needed. The financial impact associated with this item consists of required advertising per statute, recording fees and processing, estimated to be less than $175.00, which are paid by the Petitioner.
