DATE 01/08/02
COUNCIL ACTION FORM
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION TO RELEASE AND ABANDON CERTAIN PARKING
EASEMENTS PERTAINING TO 207, 208, AND 218 STANTON AVENUE.
BACKGROUND:
The property located at 208 Stanton Avenue currently has a remote parking agreement in
place that designates on site two parking spaces for use by residents at 218 Stanton
Avenue and two parking spaces for use by residents at 207 Stanton Avenue. In addition,
the property at 218 Stanton Avenue currently has a remote parking agreement in place that
designates on site 10 parking spaces for use by residents at 207 Stanton Avenue. The
owner of all three parcels is in the process of completing a 70 stall parking ram
property P P P 9 P g P
at 217 Stanton Avenue. This parking ramp will provide 50 parking spaces for the new
seven-story apartment building currently being constructed at 208 Stanton Avenue. Two
of the four parking spaces currently being provided at 208 Stanton Avenue will now be
provided in the new parking ramp at 217 Stanton Avenue. Therefore, there is no longer
a need for the parking easements designating these two spaces at 208 Stanton Avenue.
Furthermore, the property located at 207 Stanton Avenue has six residential dwelling units.
Currently 10 of the required parking spaces for 207 Stanton Avenue are being provided at
218 Stanton Avenue. Under the provisions of the newly adopted Zoning Ordinance, only
one parking space per dwelling unit is required. Therefore, only six parking spaces are
needed.
The resolution formalizing the abandonment and amendments to the parking easements
has been prepared by the City Attorney and is attached for City Council approval. This
resolution will:
1. Release and abandon two parking spaces at 208 Stanton Avenue for residents of
218 Stanton Avenue;
2. Release and abandon two parking spaces at 208 Stanton Avenue for residents of
207 Stanton Avenue; and
3. Release and abandon four of the 10 parking spaces at 218 Stanton Avenue for
residents of 207 Stanton Avenue.
ALTERNATIVES-
1- The City Council can approve the attached parking easement resolution for the
property owner, Ev Cochrane, for property located at 207, 208, and 218 Stanton
Avenue.
2. The City Council can deny the attached parking easement resolution for the property
owner, Ev Cochrane, for property located at 207, 208, and 218 Stanton Avenue.
MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is the recommendation of the City Manager that the City Council approve Alternative #1,
thereby approving the attached parking easement resolution releasing four parking spaces
(two for 207 Stanton Avenue and two for 218 Stanton Avenue) from 208 Stanton Avenue
and releasing four of the 10 parking spaces from 218 Stanton Avenue for 207 Stanton
Avenue.
