The vacation of this road has been requested by the adjacent property owners whose lots are encumbered by the easement for the private and future street for Devell Road. The intended purpose of Devell Road was to serve as an interior local street connecting Iron Canyon Road and Warm Springs Drive, However, Devell Road has not been improved or used for purposes dedicated. Due to the vacation of the northerly section of Devell Road in August 28, 1990 (Resolution No. 90-169) the southerly section serves no purpose and will never be able to be used for purposes dedicated. All of the lots to be served by Devell Road or adjacent to it have access to either Iron Canyon Road or Warm Springs Drive. This road is not necessary to provide access to specific parcels. If Devell Road were improved, it would provide an alternate access route to Sand Canyon Road for residents along Iron Canyon Road and Warm Springs Drive. However, the grading for the construction of Devell Road would impact existing houses and structures. The Planning Commission tentatively approved Tract No. 41812 in 1990, along the southerly section of Devell Road and recommended the vacation of Devell Road within the tract, which is the section the property owner has requested for vacation. However, Tract No. 41812 was never recorded; thus, the easement for the private and future street for Devell Road was not vacated in 1990. As provided in the Street Vacation Act, a road may be vacated if it is determined that it is no longer necessary for public use. The procedure governing the vacation of unimproved streets, alleys, and easements has been completed. The utility companies have been notified of the proposed vacation so that they may reserve any utility easements they may require, and none were needed.
