It should be noted that the right-of-way is private; therefore, the right-of-way is not used for public road - purposes. In fact, the County's interest in the right-of-way is limited to utility easement rights that were granted as part of the Windsor Plat 25 private right-of-way dedication. The County Department of Utility Service has determined that the small portion of right-of-way to be abandoned is not needed for utility purposes. Consequently, County Utility Services has no objection to the Board granting the requested abandonment. The applicant's Attorney (Jerome Quinn) will obtain release of the subject portion of private right-of-way from Windsor and is seeking abandonment_ from the County to ensure clear title. Per guidelines established by the Board of County Commissioners, this petition was reviewed by all county divisions and utility providers having jurisdiction or potential interests within the right-of-way. All reviewing agencies and departments have recommended approval of the requested abandonment. The subject right-of-way is not part of the roadway system as noted on the County Thoroughfare Plan, and is not needed for the thoroughfare system. Furthermore, the abandonment will not affect the right of convenient access to surrounding properties. Also, the County Attorney's Office has reviewed and approved the attached abandonment resolution for legal form and _sufficiency. RECOMMENDATION: Based on the analysis, staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners abandon its rights to thesubjectright-of-way and authorize the chairnian to execute the attached abandonment resolution.
