Adjacent owners have requested consideration of this <br />matter and the City staff reports that there is no apparent public need for this property. <br />Following the public hearing, Council may adopt an ordinance on this matter. <br /> <br />Mayor Adams opened the public hearing at 7:35 p.m. <br /> <br />Mr. Lieberman asked if the adjacent owners had indicated any willingness to accept the <br />maintenance of this property. Mr. Ollendorff said that the adjacent owner made the <br />request and has already cleaned up the property and has also planted on it. They are <br />maintaining it. Mr. Lieberman interjected that this was for two parcels of land. He <br />asked if the second parcel had been spoken for by its adjacent owner. <br /> <br />Gregory Rose, Deputy City Manager, has not heard from the other adjacent owner <br />regarding their willingness or unwillingness to maintain this property. Public hearing <br />notices were distributed to each adjacent owner. Mr. Lieberman wants the other owner <br />contacted and a definite answer from them on whether they will ac~;ept the <br />maintenance of this property before the next council meeting. He will ask for the bill to <br />be delayed prior to second and third reading later this evening. <br /> <br />Mayor Adams closed the public hearing at 7:41 p.m. <br /> <br />AGENDA #3 - VACATING RIGHT-OF-WAY ON SHAFTESBURY AT RAISHER: <br /> <br />A public hearing has been set for 7:30 p.m. this date and place to receive comments on <br />the proposed vacating of excess public street right-of-way on the north side of <br />Shaftesbury adjacent to 7860 Drexel Drive. Since there is no public: benefit from <br />ownership of this property and considerable public liability from said ownership, it <br />appears to be in everyone's best interest to vacate this property. A bill has been <br />introduced carrying out this action and may be voted on at such time as the Council <br />deems appropriate. <br /> <br />Mr. Ollendorff commented that the City is keeping 10' behind the curb for a future <br />walkway. <br /> <br />Mayor Adams opened the public hearing at 7:39 p.m. <br /> <br />Mr. Dmitri Chapman, 7860 Drexel, stated that he understands the concern about the <br />walkway and he does like the idea of a walkway behind his home.
