WHEREAS, the City Council desires to vacate the above street pursuant to chapter 22.140
SVMC.
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of The City of Spokane Valley, Spokane County,
Washington,do.ordain as follows:
Section 1. Findings of Fact. The City Council makes the following findings of fact:
1. The area proposed to be vacated is improved with pavement and landscaping, and currently
used by adjacent property owners with the assumption the ROW does not exist.The vacation
will establish the parcel lines consistent with the current use of the ROW.The area proposed
to be vacated leas existing services from Avista Utilities 'and Comcast. Avista submitted
public comment requesting an easement to preserve an overhead electrical distribution
facility located in-the ROW.Comcast provided a comment to the Applicant during the initial
application gathering stagestating they have no objection, if an easement is preserved for
their existing aerialpath.No comments were provided by Comcast during the formal routing
stage. Staff has carried:forward the request for easements into the recommended conditions.
The vacation of the corner of Broadway Avenue and Thierman Road are-expected to have no
impact on the general public.
2. The.subject ROW is improved and has been utilized by adjacent property owners for
their businesses since 1985 when WSDOT dedicated the portion back to the local
jurisdiction. The portion of ROW has not been needed nor is needed in the future for
public use or access.
3. The area originally deeded to WSDOT in 1985 was unused and given back to the local
jurisdiction. In 2016 the City preserved traffic signal system equipment within an
easement thus eliminating the need for a.substitution of a new or different ROW.
4. Based on the Comprehensive Plan it is not anticipated that changes will occur in the
future that would alter the intersection of Broadway Avenue and Thierman toad.
Traffic modeling and projections for the next 20 years indicate that a new right turn
lane at the northwest corner will not be necessary. There are no future uses for the
ROW proposed to be vacated. The traffic signal system equipment on the corner is
located in an easement and satisfactory to the City.
5. No objections or public comment has been received.
6. On June 4, 2019 Parcel 35132.1310 was purchased by Otter Investments, LLC. Otter
Investments submitted documentation agreeing to the petition and street vacation,
acknowledging they had rights to notice of the public hearing on July 25,2019,and agreeing
to proceed with the hearing on July 25,2019 without such full notice.
7. Resolution 07-009 was adopted pursuant to RCW 35.79.030 to set the City's policy for
imposing vacation charges. Pursuant to Section 1 of Resolution 07-009:
a. The cost for property received as a result of a vacation initiated by an adjacent
property owner shall equal 50% of the appraised value of the vacated property
received to the extent the cost exceeds the amount charged by the City of Spokane
Valley to initiate the vacation process.
i. The appraised value shall be the same as the value of an equivalent portion of
property adjacent to the proposed vacation as established by Spokane County
Assessor at the time the matter is considered by the City Council.
ii. If the value of adjacent properties differs, than the average.of the adjacent
• property values per square foot will be used.
Based on the average assessed Value of the adjacent properties, $372.13 is 50% of the
assessed value. Therefore, $372.13 minus the $1,365 application fee equals $-992.87. The
unimproved portions of Broadway Avenue and Thierman Road is less than the application
fee and thus,pursuant to Section 1(2)of Resolution 0'-009,no fee may be required from the
applicant.
Section 2. Property to be Vacated. Based upon the above findings and in accordance with
this Ordinance, the City Council does hereby vacate the street or alley which is incorporated herein by
reference,and legally described as follows:
