ORDINANCE NUMBER 22-11097
AN ORDINANCE ORDERING THE VACATION OF A FIVE-FOOT WIDE NORTH-SOUTH
ALLEY RIGHT-OF-WAY LOCATED AT THE REAR OF THE LOTS LOCATED ON THE
EAST SIDE OF NORTH THIRD STREET BETWEEN OTIS A VENUE AND EUCLID
AVENUE IN THE EPISCOPAL MILITARY INSTITUTE ADDITION TO THE CITY OF
SALINA, SALINE COUNTY, KANSAS, AND RESERVING TO THE CITY A PUBLIC
UTILITY EASEMENT IN, OVER, UNDER, AND THROUGH THE ENTIRE VACATED
ALLEY RIGHT-OF-WAY.
BE IT ORDAINED by the Governing Body of the City of Salina, Kansas :
Section 1. Petition and Public Hearing. On January 24, 2022 , the SaJina City Commission
conducted a public hearing ("Public Hearing") on the petition filed by Jason Miller ("Petitioner")
requesting vacation of a five-foot wide north-south alley right-of-way located at the rear of the lots
located on the east side of North Third Street between Otis A venue and Euclid A venue in the Episcopal
Military Institute Addition to the City of Salina, Saline County, Kansas, legally described as follows:
The North-South Alley that abuts the East line of the odd numbered Lots 1-31 , Block
27, Episcopal Military Institute Addition, City of Salina, Saline County, Kansas . (the
"Right-of-Way")
Section 2. Findings and Conclusions. The Governing Body determines from the evidence
presented:
(A) Due and legal notice has been given by publication as required by law.
(B) The public will suffer no loss or inconvenience by the vacation of this alley right-of-way
because the alley has never been improved or used for public vehicle access. Franchise utilities
will be protected by retention of a public utility easement.
(C) No private rights will be injured or endangered because vacation of the alJey right -of-way
would only result in adding five feet to the depth of the lots on the east side of North Third
Street.
(D) Injustice to the Petitioner, vacation of the alley right-of-way should be granted because the
continued presence of the aJley right-of-way no longer serves a public purpose and is inhibiting
construction of a new outbuilding on property owned by the Petitioner .
(E) 1be public interest is promoted by the vacation of the alley right-of-way because it would
eliminate public ownership of a strip of land that is not being used or maintained by the public.
_... Section 3. Order of Vacation and Reservation of Public Utility Easement. The Ri ght-of-
Way is ordered vacated , subjec t to the City's re servation of a public utility easement in, over, under, and
_.. through the entire vacated Right-of-Way.
