Character of Surrounding Area and Adjacent Land Use and Zoning: The surrounding area is developed with single family residences, zoned R-2 and R-8. C. History of Previous Actions: In 2013, the property received final plat (FP -13-046) approval to develop the Spurwing Rim Subdivision. The easements proposed for vacation were created with the recordation of the plat. Recently, the Director tentatively approved the consolidation of Lots 7 and 8, Block 1 into a single parcel through a property boundary adjustment (PBA -14-015). 7. AGENCY COMMENTS MEETING No comments were received by the Planning Division from other City departments for the subject application. 8. STAFF ANALYSIS The applicant requests approval to vacate the two (2) 5 -foot wide permanent public utilities, drainage, and irrigation (PUDI) easements located on the common lot line between Lots 7 and 8, Block 1 of Spurwing Rim Subdivision. The two lots have been approved to consolidate through a property boundary adjustment. Approval of the subject vacation application will remove the PUDI easements and allow the construction of a single home on the consolidated parcel. Further the property boundary adjustment of the parcel has necessitated the termination of one of the existing sewer services and one existing water service. Prior to applying for a building permit, the applicant must coordinate with the Public Works Department on the abandonment process for the unused sewer service, and with United Water of Idaho on the water service. All public utilities (Idaho Power, Century Link, Cable One, Intermountain Gas) have given consent to relinquish the easements. The pressurized irrigation system is a private system, owned and maintained by the home owner's association therefore; the Settlers Irrigation District has no jurisdiction over the easement area. Since none of the applicable utility providers object to the proposed vacation, Staff recommends approval of vacating the easements as proposed in Exhibit A.2. 9. EXHIBITS A. Drawings 1.
