ITEM SUMMARY:  
·      The applicant is proposing to vacate a portion of Henneman Way located at the eastern terminus of Henneman Way and approximately 100 feet east of Dr. Kenneth Cooper Drive. The applicant is requesting the vacation of two pieces of existing Henneman Way right-of-way (approximately 2,000 square feet) for the purposes of acquiring the property and incorporating it into a future roundabout with enhanced landscaping. The larger piece of the proposed right-of-way vacation will be located in a future common area (maintained by the property owner's association) in the center of the roundabout and the smaller triangular piece will no longer be necessary for vehicular circulation and will be incorporated into the property to the north.

BOARD OR COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
