DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:
This is a request to consider approval of a Resolution by Petitioner Southeast Consulting Services, Inc. to close and abandon previously deeded right of way recorded in Deed Book 309 Page 311, Deed Book 310 Page 510, and Official Records Book 347 Page 155, located in Section 20, Township 16, Range 21 and to renounce and disclaim any right of the County and the general public.
Marion County obtained right of way with the intent of building a road from State Road 200 to the east between what is now Countryside Farms Subdivision and Pioneer Ranch Subdivision. In 1976, portions of the right of way was deeded back to the successor in title to the grantor under a right of reverter in the deeds as the plans of constructing a road never came to fruition
The Petitioner is proposing to abrogate the remaining portions of deeded right of way which has never been constructed. If approved, the Resolution requires the property owned south of the abandoned right of way be provided access through property north of the right of way to avoid it being landlocked.
The Development Review Committee considered this request on March 25, 2024 and it was the committee’s recommendation that the petition be granted.
BUDGET/IMPACT:
None
