Memorandum TO: FROM: Charles Stewart, County Administrator Jim Bruner, County Engineer DATE: March 30, 2007 RE: Application for Abandonment of a portion of the un-opened right-of-way on Santa Catalina Street in the El Dorado Subdivision north of Wymberly on the Marsh Subdivision, St. Simons Island As required by the Ordinance, staff has reviewed the application of William V. Waters for abandonment of a portion of the un-opened right-of-way on Santa Catalina Street adjacent to Lot 1, Block 8 and Lot 10, Block 1 in the El Dorado Subdivision as shown on the attached sketch. a. SOURCE OF TITLE: The plat is recorded in deed book 3V, page 692, and indicates it has a 60 feet right-of- way. The subdivision plat of the Eldorado Subdivision is dated 1926. b. PRESENT USE OF EASEMENT: The public is not currently using the portion of the un-opened right-of-way proposed for abandonment. However, there is a Georgia Power line across the proposed abandonment area. c. PAST HISTORY: To the best of staff s determination, the portion of the un-opened right-of-way proposed for abandonment has never been used by the public other than for utilities. d. POTENTIAL USE IN THE FUTURE: The portion of the un-opened right-of-way proposed for abandonment could be used by the public for future maintenance of the overhead service line. e. BENEFIT TO PUBLIC IN CONTINUING USAGE: The public will continue to benefit from the utilities in a portion of the right-of-way proposed for abandonment. f. BENEFIT TO PUBLIC IN ABANDONMENT: Abandonment would return the property to the tax digest. For the above reasons, we concur with the request for abandonment of the un-opened right-of-way on Santa Catalina Street adjacent to Lot 1, Block 8 and Lot 10, Block 1 in the El Dorado Subdivision provided access for overhead utilities is maintained and recommend approval by the Board of Commissioners. In addition to the sketch and original application, I have attached a list of all property owners with their addresses within 500' of this right-of-way. /js Attachments
