STAFF ANALYSIS The Applicant requests approval to vacate a portion of the existing City water easement generally located on the northern portion of the property adjacent to W. Baldcypress Street on Lot 1, Block 1, Smitchger Subdivision North as depicted on the plat in Section VII.B. The reason for the request is that the easement prevents the property from being developed in accord with the site plan approved with the conditional use permit (H-2024-0028), included in Section VII.C below. A legal description and exhibit map of the portion of the easement proposed to be vacated is included in Section VII.A below. The Applicant submitted a relinquishment letter from the City of Meridian Public Works Dept. consenting to the vacation of the easement as proposed. The easement was intended to provide for connection of water across two dead-ends from east to west. The applicant intends to provide the water connection further south as they have indicated on conceptual utility plan shown below in Section VII.D, which is acceptable to Public Works. VI.
