CABAN 04-001) SUBJECT: NATURE OF REQUEST The agent for Largo Pointe Townhomes, Juan Perez of Moraitis, Cofar and Karney, is requesting to abandon a roadway portion of a 270-foot long unimproved roadway and utility easement located on the north side of Southwest 19th Avenue, approximately 400 feet east of Congress Avenue. This abandonment request was submitted on February 27,2004. It is described as follows: Tract A of "Christian Villas PLAT No.2", according to the Plat thereof, as recorded in Plat Book 40, Page 102 of the Public Records of Palm Beach County, Florida. The location map attached as Exhibit "A" shows the general vicinity of the portion of the road easement to be abandoned. The attached Exhibit "B" - shows the location of the proposed abandonment and its legal description. The following is a description of the zoning districts and land uses of the properties that surround the subject easement. North - Developed professional office building (Woolbright Professional Building), zoned Community Commercial CC-3); South - Developed single-family residential (Palm Beach Leisureville), zoned Single-family Residential (R-1AA); East Developed single-family residential CPalm Beach Leisureville), zoned Single-family Residential CR-1AA); and West - Developed multifamily residential property (Christian Villas), zoned Multi-family Residential (R-3). BACKGROUND On June 20, 2003, the City approved the site plan for the Largo Pointe Townhomes. Largo Pointe is to consist of 20 fee-simple townhouse units on 1.97 acres. The units are allocated to three (3) separate buildings, all two (2) stories in height. Two (2) of the buildings contain six (6) units and the largest contains eight (8) units (see Exhibit "B" - Site Plan). The Plat of Christian Villas Plat No. 2 established Tract A as a dedicated 30-foot wide roadway and utility Page 2 Memorandum No. PZ 04-112 ABAN 04-001 easement as recorded in Plat Book 40, Page 102 of the Public Records of Palm Beach County, Florida. Since the current roadway easement is no longer necessary in the design of the proposed site plan, and the re- plat of Largo Pointe provides sufficient roadway for ingress and egress, the applicant proposes to vacate the unnecessary roadway portion of the 30-foot wide roadway and utility easement while retaining a utility easement to preserve access to existing and future utility lines. This utility easement is located at the easternmost six (6) units building of the project. ANALYSIS Pursuant to Chapter 22, Article III, Section 4, public notice was given to the property owners that abut the easement to be abandoned, all utility companies have been notified and the request has been advertised in the newspaper. A summary of the responses from the utility companies and city staff is as follows: CITY DEPARTMENTSIDIVISIONS Engineering Public Works/Utilities Planning and Zoning Approval with conditions No objection No objection PUBLIC UTILITY COMPANIES Florida Power and Light Bell South Florida Public Utilities Company Cable Company CAdelphia) Cable Company CComcast) Approval with conditions No objection No objection Approval with conditions N/A RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that this request to abandon the roadway portion of the 30-foot wide and 270-foot long unimproved roadway and utility easement, located on the north side of Southwest 19th Avenue, approximately 400 feet east of Congress Avenue as described above, be approved.
