Public hearing and report on Petition No. 4305, filed by the Virgil E. Lundberg and Dorothy E.
Lundberg Trust No.2, requesting vacation of 199.36 ft. of platted restricted access along the west side
of Lot One (1), Block One (1) of the Lundberg Addition to the City of Salina, Kansas.
BACKGROUND:
A final plat of the Lundberg Addition, a 15.45 acre tract of land located at the northwest corner of
Cloud and Ohio, was approved on April 6, 1982 subject to the condition that design plans for the
required detention pond on Lot 2 must be approved prior to issuance of building permits. A
Conditional Use Permit and building permit for the Emmanuel Foursquare Church (now Emmanuel
Christian Center) on the South 325 ft. of Lot 2 was approved in 1990. When this site was originally
platted all of Lot 2 was designated as a drainage easement. The drainage easement was released on
the South 325 ft. of Lot 2 and a storm water detention basin designed to accommodate runoff from the
church site was constructed on the remainder of Lot 2. Lot 1 has remained vacant and undeveloped
since it was platted and zoned in 1982.
The original planned street access to this site was from Cloud Street on the south and Claflin Avenue
on the north. Except for the West 150 ft. which remained in place, Claflin Avenue has now been
vacated east of Ohio Street. As noted, the West 150 ft. of Claflin Avenue is still a platted public street
and the expectation at the time of plat approval was that Claflin Avenue would be extended eastward
to provide street access to Lot 1.
There is platted access control along the entire Ohio Street frontage of Lot 1. A break-in-access
would have to be approved by the City Commission to construct any type of driveway opening on Ohio
Street. The primary reason that access control was placed along the entire Ohio Street frontage of
Lot 1 is that there was no specific plan for development of Lot 1 when it was platted. Lot 1 contains
10.2 acres and is zoned C-3 (Shipping Center) district. It was not clear at the time whether it would be
a grocery store site, multi-family apartments or an office park. Therefore consideration of access to
Ohio Street was put off until there was a plan for the development of the property.
Purpose of Petition
Compro Realty is marketing and proposing to develop an office park at the northeast corner of Cloud
and Ohio. At full build out the proposed office park would occupy all of Lot 1. Lot 1 has 740 ft. of
frontage on Cloud Street and 599.36 ft. of frontage on South Ohio Street between Cloud on the south
and Claflin Avenue on the north. Access to Lot 1 would be available at the Claflin Avenue intersection
with Ohio Street and from driveways on Cloud Street. However, the applicant's engineer has also
been working on a location and design for a well placed entrance drive on Ohio Street. His design
calls for a two-way driveway that would accommodate all turning movements. A very conceptual
development plan for the property is enclosed.

The Lundberg Trust has filed this petition because with the restricted access currently in place, a
driveway on Ohio Street would not be permitted. The process for requesting a break in platted access
control is the same statutory process used for requesting the vacation of an easement or alley and
requires public notice and a hearing.
Staff Comments/Analvsis
The rationale for requiring restricted access on arterial streets is to minimize the number of curb cuts
and turning points along those streets to maintain traffic flow and reduce accident associated with
turning movements (particularly left turn movements) into and out of individual properties. Ohio Street
carries between 20,000 and 22,000 vehicles per day between Cloud and Republic. The portion of
Ohio Street between McAdams and Cloud has platted access control on the east side of the street
which has limited the number of individual driveway curb cuts. The west side does not and the west
side of Ohio has numerous individual driveways. Where there is access control, the City's policy has
been to encourage lots facing arterials to obtain access from the nearest available side street where
possible (for example Statcare).
FISCAL NOTE:
There would be no fiscal impact on the City of Salina. The developer's contractor would be
responsible for the cost of constructing the curb cut / driveway entrance to city standards.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Staff is supportive of a single, well placed driveway entrance within the area requested for vacation.
Therefore, it is recommended that the City Commission approve the ordinance allowing vacation of
the platted restricted access along the west side of Lot One (1), Block One (1) of the Lundberg
Addition as requested subject to the following conditions:
1. One (1) Forty-five (45) foot driveway with a center median may be constructed within this one
hundred ninety-nine and thirty-six hundredths (199.36) foot access opening on Ohio Street.
2. The final driveway location shall be no closer than two hundred (200 feet) from Cloud Street or two
hundred (200) feet from Claflin Avenue.
3. The final design, including curb radius, center median location, pavement markings and directional
signage, shall be reviewed and approved by the City Engineer prior to issuance of a driveway
perm it.
If the petitioner's request is approved on 151 reading, 2nd reading would be scheduled for May 19,
2008.

ACCESS VACATION
Dear Mr. Andrews:
Transmitted herewith is a signed petition to vacate a portion of the access control on said west

approval of the city traffic engineer. Also included is a copy of the survey for the property

allow better circulation into and out of the site not only for consumers but also for emergency
access.
Please let me know if you have any questions or if you need additional information.
