Analysis
The abandonment applicants, Joseph A. Monaco and Mindi A. Monaco at 2811 England Parkway, have requested the abandonment of a 7.5-foot utility easement on the south side of their lot. The Monacos want to install a swimming pool at this location.

Staff has reviewed the requested abandonment and finds that the abandonment of the 7.5-foot easement will not hinder drainage or utilities in the area. All pre-existing drainage patterns will be maintained.

Financial Consideration
Revenue: $250.00 paid with application
