Analysis
The abandonment applicant, Karen Ann Fitch Tesmer, has requested the abandonment of 2-feet of a platted 7.5-foot portion of a utility easement on the east side of this lot (see aerial location as exhibit “B”). All public utility companies have agreed to the abandonment of this 2-feet. The applicant wants to install a swimming pool and decking encroaching into this easement.
Staff has reviewed the requested abandonment and finds that the abandonment of that portion of the utility easement will not hinder drainage or utilities in the area. All pre-existing drainage patterns will be maintained.
