SUBJECT: DECLARATION OF INTENTION TO VACATE MARKET STREET WEST OF
TIMON LANE
RESOLUTION NUMBER 93-52
DEPARTMENT: Community Development
The dedication of the right-of-way for Market Street on Tract Nos. 27852, 34511, and Parcel
Maps 8398, 10195, and 18244 was provided to serve as future access to Valley Street, which
completed a connection to Calgrove Boulevard. The Market Street extension was identified under
the Los Angeles County General Plan and was designated a secondary highway,
On October 3, 1989, an appeal of a condition on a certificate of compliance was heard by the
Planning Commission for another property affected by the "future street" status of Market Street.
Following discussion, the Commission decided to recommend to the City Council the removal of
Market Street from the Master Plan of Highways. This recommendation was carried out by the
council at the November 14, 1989 meeting. An unconditional certificate of compliance was
subsequently approved for the property on December 5,1989. This allowed the construction of the
dwelling as requested and removed the probability that Market Street would be extended to Valley
Street. The Circulation Element of the City's General Plan, adopted June 25, 1991, continues to
uphold the Council's 1989 decision. regarding Market Street.
The adjacent property owners initiated the request for vacation and will be responsible for
maintenance of the existing landscape, chain-link fences and the construction of any Improvements
necessary to facilitate the efficient maintenance of the remaining portions of the street once the
conditions of the vacation were satisfied. If the City vacates Its interest in the street, the area will
become the property of the adjacent lot owners. The property would Increase the landscaped yard
area in the neighborhood and allow a greater number of uses for the land by the owners than is
presently allowed by the code.
The procedure governing the vacation of streets, alleys and easements is set forthin the
Government Code. In brief, the procedure calls for the Council to first adopt a Resolution of
Intention and set a date for a public hearing. The hearing may be held not less than 15 days
following the adoption of the Resolution of Intention. The hearing date is scheduled for
June 8, 1993, and this date is specified within the Resolution. Prior to the hearing, a notice will be
posted along the right-of-way, and staff will investigate the need to reserve utility easements.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council approve Resolution No. 93-52, declaring its intention to
vacate that portion of Market Street west of Timon Lane as shown on Exhibit "A", and give notice
of a public hearing to be held on June 8, 1993: Notices will be published and posted as required
by the Street Vacation Act.
