VACATE PORTII Mr. Burghard presented a proposal to vacate a 'stub' street OF EDGEWOOD on the east side of Edgewood Drive, between Golf Road and Lonnquist Blvd. This particular neighborhood was annexed into the Village some 6 years a~o with R-X zoning, which zoning still exists since the lots in the area are quite large. Michael Janonis, Assistant to the Village Manager, stated that during his search for a site second home to be built by students within School District 214, this stub street was considered. While the neighbors stated the program was worthwhile, they did not want such a home in their particular area but did ask that the Village consider vacating this proposed roadway area. Page 7 December 3, 1985 170 Mr. Janonis explained that the area in question is a buildable lot with the minimum area for a home in an R-1 district. In order to build a home in cooperation with the School District, it would be necessary for the Village to vacate the roadway and ask that the homeowners on each side of the lot deed the area back to the Village, which would probably involve the Village offering some type of purchase price. It is also possible that if the Village vacates this parcel the homeowners on each side could subdivide the area into one lot of record and build a single family home to be placed on the market. That particular area has been experiencing water run- problems and the Director of Public Works stated a st' m water main is necessary and this lot, along with the other ~stub' street to the east which would be Sunset Road extended, would be the most appropriate and convenient locations for such a main. Due to the various options, the Mayor and Board asked that this item be deferred for further study by the staff with a recommendation to come back before the Board at a future meeting.
