HomeMy WebLinkAbout816-OB DATE: July 16, 2012 TO: Planning Commission FROM: Stephen C. Richardson, Planning Manager SUBJECT: Consider a request for the abandonment of a 0.009 acre waterline easement FILE: 816-OB STAFF REPORT The Planning Manager recommends approval. Jeremy Mitchell, representing The Anchor Church, has applied for the abandonment of a 0.009 acre waterline easement. The property is located at 6655 Hwy. 105. Mr. Mitchell states that the church is building a new sanctuary at their current location. As part of the construction plans, a 404.50 sq. ft. exclusive waterline easement was dedicated to accommodate a needed fire hydrant. After the waterline easement was filed, a different route to the fire hydrant was approved by the City of Beaumont Water Utilities Department and a new easement for that route was dedicated. Therefore, the church would like to have the original waterline easement abandoned. This item was sent to all interested parties. No negative responses have been received.
