Adopt a Resolution vacating a portion of improved platted and deeded public right-of-way, consisting of approximately 89,931.10 square feet (2.07 acres). The subject right-of-way was created through 3 instruments: (i) through the plat of South Tampa Villa Sites, as recorded in Plat Book 6, Page 58, (ii) through that certain deed to Hillsborough County dated December 23, 1965, as recorded in Official Record Book 1567, Page 292, and (iii) through that certain deed to Hillsborough County dated March 8, 1966, as recorded in Official Record Book 1607, Page 231, all of the Public Records of Hillsborough County. Standard Building Solutions Inc., Madison Montgomery Tamiami, and Building Materials Manufacturing LLC ("Petitioners") submitted this request to unite the parcels for improved functionality. Public Works has reviewed the petition and confirmed there is no reimbursement required for the existing right-of-way. There are no objections to this vacating request. EPC has noted any future impacts to wetlands (or conservation areas) will be separately reviewed as a part of any redevelopment. Estimated costs for required advertising per statute, recording fees, and processing, are accounted for in the Petitioner's application fee of $400.
