Session 1633, ~ January 9, 1995 Page 2 to clean it up. Mr. Ollendorff said the prc~ c~a~er bm.~ been responsible for mintenance and that will not change. He said tb~ owner's survey will show a space seven and one-half feet to the rear of property lines, and that is what each owner will get. The City has never accepted this property as an alley or had it improved. When the ordinanoe vacating the alley is adopted, it will be recorded and a copy sent to each adjacent owner; this copy should be kept with th~ owner's property papers. Mrs. Carmen Jo~es, 7135 Northmoor, said the property owners behind her are now using the entire ~-~m~nt for a garage tuzn-around, .and she wished to know if the city will inform them that b~]f of it is her property. Mayor Majerus said w~en Ms. Jones receives a oopy of the vacating ordinance, she can show it to her neighbor. Mr. Ollendorff said each adjacent property owner will will have this document stating the City gave up its interest in the seven and c~e-half feet in favor of the adjacent owner.

The public hearing was closed at 7:49 p.m. Mrs. Schuman suggested that Northmoor residents who still have questions call Mr. Ollendorff prior to adoption of the vacating ordinance (in two weeks).
