Vacate unimproved 40-foot section of Fall Avenue east of South 52nd Street
In Plain English
The city owns a small undeveloped strip of Fall Avenue that was never built into an actual street. This 40-foot by 103-foot section sits east of South 52nd Street. If approved, the city gives up ownership of this land, which typically allows adjacent property owners to purchase it.

Why This Vote Matters
The council unanimously approved giving up city ownership of a small, undeveloped strip of Fall Avenue that was never actually built as a street. This 40-foot by 103-foot piece of land sits east of South 52nd Street and will likely be sold to neighboring property owners. The decision is notable because Councilmember McLaughlin, who has opposed all previous zoning items this term, joined her colleagues in supporting this land vacation. This appears to be a routine administrative matter involving unused city property rather than a significant development decision.
