In 1999, the City Council adopted a street closure policy that includes the following provisions:

1. It is the policy of the City Council to close public streets and sell the underlying property. The Council does not close streets when the action would deny all access to other property.
2. The general policy when closing a street is to obtain fair market value for the land, whether the abutting property is residential, commercial or industrial.
3. There should be sufficient public policy reasons that justify the sale and/or closure of a public street and it should be sufficiently demonstrated by the applicant that the sale and/or closure of the street will accomplish the stated public policy reasons.
4. The City Council should determine whether the stated public policy reasons outweigh alternatives to the closure of the street.

Planning Staff processes the application, communicates with the applicant to understand the project, and seeks input from the community.

The public comment period closed on August 15, 2022. For additional information on this project please contact the staff planner.

During and following this comment period, the Planning Division will evaluate the proposal against the applicable zoning standards, taking into consideration public comments as they relate to the standards, and develop a recommendation for the Planning Commission.
