RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Adopt Resolution No. 2004-063
31 77 Lincoln Street, STV 03-04.
summarily vacating a portion of street right-of-way fronting
ITEM EXPLANATION:
The applicant, William Korn, has filed an application with the City to vacate 10 feet of public
right-of-way along Lincoln Street. The proposed vacation fronts 3177 Lincoln Street, along a
property owned by William M. Korn, a single man. The property is located along Lincoln Street, just
north of Pine Avenue, more particularly known as APN 203-250-09.
Currently, Lincoln Street has an 80-foot wide right-of-way. At this location, Lincoln Street is
considered a local street. The standard right-of-way width for a local street is 60 feet. Therefore, the
80-foot width is excessive. As proposed, the street vacation will have no effect on the ultimate
curb-to-curb width of the street.
Staff has concluded that the excess right-of-way is not required for present or future street
purposes. The vacation would not affect vehicular or non-motorized traffic circulation or the
availability of street parking. The street vacation is considered to be minor and is consistent with
previously approved street vacations in the same general location.
The utility companies have been notified of this street vacation request. SBC Pacific Bell responded
that they have facilities in the area and requested the reservation of an easement for these facilities.
Therefore, a public utility easement will be reserved in the area being vacated.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of this street vacation will result in approximately 750 square feet of land to be returned to the
tax rolls. While no detailed economic analysis was conducted, there will be an increase in tax revenue
resulting from the vacation and any subsequent development that may benefit from said vacation. The
right-of-way for Lincoln Street was dedicated to the City at no cost and the City will vacate the right-of-
way at no cost to the property owner. The owner has paid the standard fee for processing this summary
street vacation.
