Between E. 17�h St. and E. 18�h St. (Metx, LLC Renovation Project)
DATE: December 22, 2017
Metx, LLC is requesting the vacation of a portion of the alley right of way between Elm
Street and Pine Street and between E. 17�h St. and E. 18�h St. as part of the Metx, LLC
Renovation Project at 1690 Elm Street.
In October of this year, the City and Metx, LLC entered into a development agreement
with multiple considerations relating to the redevelopment of the Metx property at 1690
Elm Street, including the vacation of the subject alley right of way to be used for access
to the Metx parking lots.
The subject alley area is a section of the planned and budgeted hike/bike trail that will
connect the Lower Bee Branch and Upper Bee Branch Creek trails from 16�h Street to
Gartield Avenue. The alley right of way area to be vacated to Metx will need to be
platted. The City will retain a utility easement over the entire portion of the vacated
property and will also retain an easement for the hike/bike path. The City will also
reserve an ingress and egress easement for Alliant Energy, who owns the property at
455 E. 17�h Street, which will allow them to access their property.
City Engineer Gus Psihoyos recommends City Council approval of the Plat of Survey of
Lot 175A of East Dubuque Addition.
I concur with the recommendation and respectfully request Mayor and City Council
approval.
