Summary Explanation/Background
THE ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AND GROWTH MANAGEMENT DEPARTMENT AND THE PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT MANAGEMENT DIVISION RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF THE ABOVE MOTION.
The Planning and Development Management Division has received a request to vacate a portion of a 50-foot right-of-way, known as Harding Street, lying within Hollywood Acres, as recorded in Plat Book 25, Page 1 of the Public Records of Broward County and is located at 1841 North State Road 7 in the City of Hollywood. Vacating this right-of-way will provide clear and unencumbered title to the property owner.
The City of Hollywood adopted Ordinance No. O-2018-12 on June 16, 2018 granting approval of the abandonment and vacation of the 50-foot right-of-way. Review of this application by the applicable reviewing agencies indicates that there is no objection to the abandonment and vacation of the subject right-of-way.
This vacation application has been reviewed and approved as to form by the Office of the County Attorney (Exhibit 1).
In the event Executive Order 20-69 is not extended by the Governor, staff will revise the public notice accordingly before placing an advertisement before the December 1, 2020 hearing. See Exhibit 3 for the Public Notice.
