COUNCIL COMMUNICATION
Date Agenda Item Subject
Vacation of Right-of-Way in
1800 Block of West Cornell
July 20, 1998 10 a iv Avenue
Initiated By Staff Source
Neighborhood and Business Development Harold J. Stitt, Community Coordinator
COUNCIL GOAL AND PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION
No previous Council action.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
That West Cornell Avenue, east of South Shoshone Street, be vacated , provided:
1) A general utility easement shall be retained which reflects the original right-of-way;
2) All manholes must be maintained uncovered at the same level as the surrounding grade and easily
accessible for utility maintenance operations.
BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, AND ALTERNATIVES IDENTIFIED
West Cornell Avenue in the 1800 block west is an unimproved triangular portion of right-of-way,
bounded on the west side by South Shoshone Street , and on the east side by the City of
Englewood/City and County of Denver boundary. Rail lines also exist along the east line of the site,
and are topographical changes which would inhibit extension of West Cornell Avenue to the east of
South Shoshone Street. This portion of right-of-way does not provide access to any adjacent property.
Vacation of this parcel will not impact the transportation grid of Englewood.
The site presently serves as a "dumping ground" for trash and refuse. Adjoining property owners
would, if the right-of-way is vacated, clean the property, use part of the site for parking and landscape
the remainder of the site.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
There is no financial impact to the City; in fact, this small 780 sq. ft. parcel will, if vacated, be placed
back on the tax rolls of the City.

grid of Englewood.
