Title
Resolution to Release Roadway Rights at 2845 South State Street (CPC Recommendation: Approval - 7 Yeas and 0 Nays) (8 Votes Required)
Memorandum
Roadway rights across the western 50 feet of 2845 South State Street were made available to the City by a Warranty Deed recorded in Liber 1437, page 44, Washtenaw County Records. A 178-foot long portion of these rights were released in 2014 by Resolution R-14-415, a certified copy of which was recorded in Liber 5072, page 806, Washtenaw County Records.
Oxford Company, representing the owner of 2845 South State Street, Tax Parcel No. 09-12-04-300-065 has requested release of the roadway rights adjacent to their property so the areas may be included in a future redevelopment project.
Staff support releasing the roadway rights because further widening of South State Street is no longer contemplated and releasing will allow infill and redevelopment of the land.
The Planning Commission held a public hearing on January 16, 2024, and recommended approval of the release request. A survey drawing and legal description of each segment are attached.
