On January 10, 2017, the City Council approved on second reading an ordinance vacating as a public thoroughfare a portion of Hillside Drive SE and a portion of the Pedestrian Access Trail known as Tract A of the Henderson Commercial Park Binding Site Plan. The ordinance authorized the abutting property owners to construct and grant to the City a pedestrian access easement as compensation in lieu of the payment required under OMC Chapter 12.16 and RCW 35.79.010.
Section 4 of the ordinance approved on January 10 states:
Section 4. I, Jane Ragland Kirkemo, City Clerk/Treasurer, hereby certify that an amount equal to one-half of the appraised value of property above vacated was was not _____ received within the time referred to above.
This section is not tailored to a street vacation when another type of compensation is made in lieu of payment. That section has been replaced with a new Section 4 tailored to the trade of easements described in Section 3 of the ordinance. The ordinance is before the Council for a corrected second reading.
