Motion - On March 5, 2002, under Council File No. 01-1459, the City Council adopted new procedures for processing street vacations, which require the adoption of a Rule 16 motion to initiate street vacation proceedings.

THEREFORE MOVE that upon adoption of this motion, street vacation proceedings to vacate the subsurface of the alley southerly of Lindbrook Drive from approximately 200 feet easterly of Glendon Avenue to 130 feet easterly thereof, be initiated pursuant to California Streets and Highways Code, Division 9, Part 3, Public Streets, Highways and Service Easements Vacation Law.
FURTHER MOVE that the Bureau of Engineering be directed to investigate the feasibility of this vacation request.
FURTHER MOVE that the Bureau of Engineering present its report regarding the feasibility of vacating the requested area to the Public Works Committee.
