ITEM TITLE: Resolution 0002 to of Council ' s intention to vacate a

public hearing for same
SUBMITTED BY: Director of Public Works/City Engineer
REVIEWED BY: City Manager (4/5ths Vote: Yes X No )
In March of this year, Mr. Juan Llamas, representing the owners of the
properties at 3905, 3917, and 3925 Main Street applied for the vacation of a
portion of Otay Valley Road and Main Street (see Exhibit "A"). In accordance
with the Street and Highways Code, the Council must approve a resolution
stating its intention to vacate and set a date and time for a public hearing
to consider the vacation.
RECOMMENDATION: That the Council approve the resolution of intention and
set a public hearing for June 2, 1987.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable.
DISCUSSION:
The original alignment of Otay Valley Road was dedicated on the subdivision
map of Brodericks Otay Acres (Map No. 1243) and recorded on March 24, 1910.
The alignment was set in an angular fashion without benefit of horizontal
curves. In January of 1953, Road Survey No. 701 was approved, realigning it
to include more modern engineering practices: doing away with angle points and
relocating the right-of-way to better fit the existing topography.
In 1958, Road Survey No. 1013 extended Main Street easterly from its
intersection with Otay Valley Road. This created a three-way intersection
with an acute angle of only 23 degrees. (Current standards call for 90-degree
intersections. ) The County has redone the intersection twice since 1958 to
improve its geometrics. The intersection is now aligned so that Otay Valley
Road ends at Date Street as shown on the attached exhibits and Date has a "T '
intersection with Main Street.
It has been determined that a portion of the excess right-of-way may be
vacated with easement reservations for the City's public sewer and other
utility companies which have facilities within the existing right-of-way.
