The applicant, CBD, LLC, is requesting vacation of a portion of Herbert Hoover Highway right-of-way
adjacent to Churchill Meadows – Part One. The vacation is requested to allow the applicant to combine the

Typical arterial street right-of-ways are 100 feet. The right-of-way of Herbert Hoover Highway in this area
ranges from 135 feet to 160 feet wide. Vacating the requested 15 foot wide portion will leave sufficient
right-of-way for public purposed and will also make the width more consistent with adjacent areas.

ANALYSIS:
The following factors are to be considered in evaluating a vacation request:
a) Impact on pedestrian and vehicular access and circulation;
b) Impact on emergency and utility vehicle access and circulation;
c) Impact on access of adjacent private properties;
d) Desirability of right-of-way for access or circulation needs;
e) Location of utilities and other easements or restrictions on the property;
f) Any other relevant factors pertaining to the specific requested vacation.
a) Vehicular and pedestrian circulation and access to private property:
Vacating this portion of right-of-way along Herbert Hoover Highway will not impede access to private
property. Sufficient street right-of-way will remain.
b) Emergency and utility and service access:
Emergency, utility, and service access to surrounding property will not be impacted by the vacation.
c) Impact on access of adjacent private properties
Adjacent private properties will not be affected by this vacation as sufficient right-of-way will remain.
d) Desirability of right of way for access or circulation needs
This portion of right-of-way along Herbert Hoover Highway is not utilized for access or circulation.
e) Location of utilities and other easements or restrictions on the property
Letters were sent to MidAmerican, Centurylink, and Mediacom to see if utilities are present along this
portion of the right-of-way of Herbert Hoover Highway. If any utilities are present easements will need
to be retained.
f) Any other relevant factors pertaining to the specific requested vacation
There do not appear to be other factors that warrant the retention of this portion of this right of way.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of VAC15-00008, a vacation of
approximately 12,884 square feet of Herbert Hoover Highway right-of-way.

VACATION ITEM VAC15-00008:
Discussion of an application submitted by CBD, LLC for the vacation of an approximately 15 -
foot wide portion of Herbert Hoover Highway located adjacent to Churchill Meadows - Part
One.
Wolf presented the staff report stating the request is for a 15 foot portion along the right of way of
Herbert Hoover Highway to the north of Churchill Meadows. The vacation is requested to allow
the applicant to combine the 15 feet of excess right-of-way with the adjacent residential lots.
Typical arterial street right-of-ways are 100 feet. The right-of-way of Herbert Hoover Highway in
this area ranges from 135 feet to 160 feet wide. Vacating the requested 15 foot wide portion will
leave sufficient right-of-way for public needs and will also make the width more consistent with
adjacent areas. No utility, emergency or service will be impacted due to this vacation. It will not
impede on any vehicular or pedestrian traffic. This portion of right-of-way along Herbert
Hoover Highway is not utilized for access or circulation. Letters were sent to MidAmerican,
Centurylink, and Mediacom to see if utilities are present along this portion of the right-of-way
of Herbert Hoover Highway and the City received no notification from any of those
companies.
Staff recommends approval of VAC15-00008, a vacation of approximately 12,884 square feet of
Herbert Hoover Highway right-of-way.
Eastham asked who owned this section of Herbert Hoover Highway before it was annexed into
the City. Miklo said in most cases in Johnson County the county has an easement over private
property for roads, but in this case the County actually owned the portion of the highway.
Hektoen said by approving this the City is vacating its property interest. Miklo believes this land
was dedicated as right-of-way when Herbert Hoover Highway was annexed.
Freerks opened the public hearing.
Seeing no one, Freerks closed the public hearing.
Hensch moved to approve VAC15-0008, a vacation of approximately 12,884 square feet of
Herbert Hoover Highway right-of-way.
Parsons seconded the motion.
A vote was taken and the motion carried 7-0.
Miklo noted that in the previous agenda item Eastham had asked about a sidewalk access to the
outlot area and wanted to make sure the applicant had that on their list to address at the next
meeting.
PRESENTATION OF PROJECTS IN THE RIVERFRONT CROSSINGS
DISTRICT
Howard noted there are quite a few things going on in Riverfront Crossings, many which the
Commission may have seen, but since particularly the South Downtown portion of Riverfront
Crossings was blanket rezoned early on to get things started there are some projects going on in
that area that the Commission may not be aware of.
