ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT

TO:

Vancouver City Council

FROM:

Manager of Real Estate Services

SUBJECT:

Dedication of a Portion of City-owned Land for Lane - 546 Prior St.

 

RECOMMENDATION

GENERAL MANAGER'S COMMENTS

COUNCIL POLICY

Council approval is required for dedications and subdivision of City-owned land.

PURPOSE

The purpose of this report is to seek Council authorization to dedicate the south 10 feet of this City-owned Lot 9 for lane purposes (Appendix A).

BACKGROUND

On December 31, 1998 this property was transferred to the City through tax sale. The property was developed with a condemned apartment building and the City arranged for its demolition.

PRESENT SITUATION

The property is presently held in the Property Endowment Fund. The City Engineer requires the south 10 feet be dedicated for lane purposes before disposition of this property. As the survey in this area dates back to the 1800's it is now necessary to redefine the site boundaries and apply for subdivision to dedicate the lane portion. In order to dispose of this property and recover some of the demolition expenses the Manager of Real Estate Services is in favour of dedicating the lane portion.
