MEMO TO COMMISSIONERS:

FROM:
Ed Muire, Planning Director
DATE:
July 22, 2022
SUBJECT:
Road Abandonment Resolution for Gym and School Streets in Woodleaf Community

REQUEST

NCDOT has submitted a petition requesting action from the Commission regarding the closure and abandonment of Gym and School Streets in the Woodleaf Community.  The documentation from NCDOT recommends closure of approximately .06 miles of Gym Street (SR#1967) and all of School Street (SR#1966).  The closure of these streets will allow build-out of the Woodleaf Community Park without need to accommodate these streets in project design. 

 

At the time pf petition submittal, the Rowan-Salisbury Board of Education owned the property, but has now been transferred to Rowan County.  As a practical matter, the Commission, representing the County's interests, should submit a revised petition request for consideration of abandonment by NCDOT Division of Highways.  



RECOMMENDATION

  • Authorize the County Manager to complete and sign the SR-3 Form
  • Adopt the Abandonment Resolution and authorize the Clerk to certify
  • Send the completed Form and Resolution to NCDOT
