Commissioner, the first item agenda item C one vacate petition 23-012.

Uh real estate services will provide this, present this item.

For the record, Victoria Rosenbecker with facilities management and real estate services.

Item C1 today is vacate ID V23-0012.

This is a petition by Gunn Highway Investment LLC to vacate an unimproved platted public right-of-way consisting of approximately 0.9 acres.

The subject right-of-way was dedicated through the plat of first edition of Keystone Park Colony as recorded in Platbook 5, page 62, and is generally located east of Gun Highway and north of Tarpin Springs Road in Keystone, Odessa.

The petitioner submitted this request to allow for development of a residential subdivision.

Reviewing departments, agencies, and utility providers have raised no objections to this request.

A temporary public access and drainage easement is being reserved over the vacate area, which will automatically terminate once the petitioner's proposed Odessa preserve replat is recorded, which will satisfy staff requests to provide legal access to all parcels adjacent to the vacate area as well as alternative drainage easement rights for a drainage connection for lake artillery.

Thank you for your consideration, and I'm available to answer any questions.

Anyone like to speak to this item?

Seeing none, can we have a motion?

Move to approve.

Motion Commissioner Myers and Commissioner Cohen.
