Description/Background:
Mr. Barry Grzybowski, owner of the property at 1286 East Spring Ridge Drive, has requested that Sandy City close a portion of Aspen Ridge Road south of the junction with Spring Ridge Drive. The subject property is currently a paved and maintained public street that dead-ends into a commercial project located in Draper City.
Sandy City Ordinance requires that the Planning Commission review all requests to modify a public street, and to make a recommendation to the City Council. The City Council is required to hold a public hearing prior to making a final decision.
(See Exhibit1 - Aspen Ridge Road Partial Street Vacation Exhibit).
The Planning Commission reviewed this request on November 18, 2021 and they forwarded a positive recommendation to the City Council.
Recommended Action and/or Suggested Motion:
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the partial street right-of-way vacation of a portion of Aspen Ridge Road as shown in the attached exhibit, based on the following findings and subject to the following conditions of approval:
FINDINGS
1. Good cause exists for this vacated area as it will be incorporated into the adjacent owners properties for their use and enjoyment and this road is not needed for the movement of traffic.
2. That there is neither material injury to either the public interest nor any person by the requested vacation.
3. Staff has not received any objection from the abutting property owners.
4. The City Engineer has recommended the approval of the partial street vacation.
CONDITIONS
1. That the approval is conditioned upon the City proceeding through the vacation process through action by the City Council.
2. That the applicant work with the Public Works and Public Utilities Departments to finalize drawings and cost of improvements associated with this proposed street vacation.
3. That the recording of the street vacation ordinance be done with the Salt Lake County Recorder’s Office.
