STATEMENT OF FACTS:
1. A petition has been filed requesting vacation of a portion of South. 370th Street/9th Street, hereinafter described.
2. The department of local services notified utility companies serving the area and King County departments of the proposed vacation and has been advised that Lakehaven Water and Sewer District requires an easement over the vacation area. The vacation shall not extinguish the rights of any utility company to any existing easements for facilities or equipment within the vacation area.
3. The department of local services' records indicate that this segment of right of way is unopened and unmaintained.
4. The department of local services considers the subject portion of right of way useless as part of the county road and transportation system and believes the public would benefit by the return of this segment of right of way to the public tax rolls and recommends approval of the vacation.
5. Pursuant to K.C.C. 14.40.020 and RCW 36.87.120, the value of the vacation area is offset by the costs to King County to manage and maintain this segment of unopened right of way and the present value of future property tax. This results in a determination of no compensation required for the vacation of both the 1,700 square feet of South 370th Street/9th Street right of way to the property of Petitioner Marcus E. Curtis, King County Assessor's Parcel Number 375160-6320, and the 1,673 square feet of South. 370th Street/9th Street right of way to the property of Petitioners John S. and Suzanne Schreier, King County Assessor's Parcel Number 375160-6296.
6. Due notice was given in the manner provided by law. The office of the hearing examiner held the public hearing on February 7, 2024.
7. As detailed in the February 7, 2024...
