      Ordinance - Vacation of Alley Remnant
      INTRODUCTION:
      A request has been submitted by Daniel B. and Cynthia L. Clark to vacate,
      sell and transfer a twenty-foot (20') wide unimproved alley remnant located behind their home
      located at 305 Burnside.
      BACKGROUND:
      Daniel and Cynthia Clark own Lots 3 &5 of the Burnside 2nd Addition to the
      City of Muscatine. The Clark's would like to construct a detached garage on the Lot 5 but are
      not permitted to construct a garage on a vacant lot unless it is attached (contiguous) to the
      same property where the home is located. Adjacent property owners were contacted by the
      Clark's and have indicated their support for the Clark request and have also agreed to acquire
      the remnants located behind their homes located at 301 (Schroeder) & 303 (Castillo) Burnside,
      and Allison (307). A Public Hearing was scheduled and the City Council approved the
      Ordinance vacating the alley ROW on first reading during their August 1st meeting. Since there
      were no objections filed during the public hearing, the Clark's are requesting that the City
      Council waive the second reading of the Ordinance and approve the vacation on final reading
      during the August 15th meeting.
      RECOMMENDATION/RATIONALE:
      There are no other property owners that abut this
      unimproved alley. It is recommended that the City Council waive the 2nd reading and adopt the
      attached Ordinance on final reading.

      runs behind our property, I am requesting that the reading on Thursday, August 15, 2013 be the second and final
      reading. All property
      owners are in agreement and will purchase their portion of the alley.
