Home My WebLink About620-OBFOW rkw DATE: February 20, 2002 TO: Planning Commission FROM: Stephen C. Richardson, Planning Manager SUBJECT: Request to abandon an 0.435 acre portion of Milam Street between IH-10 and Hillebrandt Bayou. NEENEWNWO-M The Planning Manager recommends abandonment of Milam Street, between IH-10 and Hillebrandt Bayou, subject to the retention of the abandoned right-of-way as a drainage and utility easement to accommodate the existing utilities and drainage facilities. Charles Leyendecker, agent for Iron Horse Enterprises, is asking that this portion of Milam Street be abandoned in order to provide better access into its properties on both sides of the street. On the north side of Milam is Cowboy Harley Davidson, According to Mr. Leyendecker, this abandoned right-of-way would provide a place to park corporate vehicles and supply trucks for a short time. In addition, the abandonment would provide a safer environment for the motorcycle riders when attending their meetings in one of the buildings adjoining Milam Street. To extend Milam Street to the west would require the construction of a bridge across Hillebrandt Bayou. Due to the expense of the bridge and the use of this street as a "shortcut" to 111-10, the extension is unlikely. Exhibits are attached.

This would obviously require the construction of a bridge across the Bayou. They were of the opinion the project would be more costly than beneficial, and that the project would most likely divert traffic that was now using College Street to start using the "short cut" through a subdivision to get to I- 10. Therefore, I was told the construction of these items (street & bridge) would not happen, I then asked about the abandonment of Milam Street at this location. I was told that if all adjacent property owners would agree to the abandonment it would be done. Since the corporation I represent (Iron Horse) owns all of the adjacent property to Milam. Street I wanted to request the abandonment. Although no buildings at this time are planned to be constructed on this property it would be a benefit to the owners for the abandonment to take place. Milam, Street would provide a place to park supply trucks for a short time, corporate vehicles and provide a safer environment for the motorcycle riders for their meetings in one of the buildings adjoining Milam Street. T he now existing street would be used for traffic to one of the several pieces of property that now adjoin Milam. Since the city has no use or plans for Milam Street nor the cost associated with any improvements to the street., I respectfully request the city abandon the dedicated right-of- way.
