SUBJECT: Application for Abandonment of a portion of the 20’ alley adjacent to Glynco Annex and Chapel Crossing Road, Brunswick, GA
As required by the Ordinance, staff has reviewed the application from The Bishop Law Firm attorney for Rule 62 Enterprises, LLC (Mike Murphy Kia) for abandonment of a portion of the 20’ alley adjacent to Block C, Glynco Annex and a portion of the right-of-way on Chapel Crossing as shown on the attached sketch. a. SOURCE OF TITLE: The abandonment request involves properties whose rights the County acquired separately. The source of those rights are listed below:
(1) Alley – 4,109 square feet: dedication on plat of Glynco Annex Subdivision, approved June 16, 1959 by Glynn County Board of Commissioners.
(2) Chapel Crossing Road - Chapel Crossing Road – 8,600 ± square feet: Dedication on plat of Glynco Annex Subdivision, approved June 16, 1959 by Glynn County Board of Commissioners. Plat of Glynco Annex Subdivision recorded in plat drawer 1, page 16. 2,331 square feet prescriptive easement based on recorded plat of Day and Bloom Subdivision - Brunswick Farms, dated May 1926. Plat recorded deed book 4J, page 33 and 34, the road is labeled Scranton Road 30’. Also, plat of Glynco Annex Subdivision, which depicts 30 feet existing right-of-way.
b. PRESENT USE OF alley and Road: The portion of the alley proposed for abandonment is not currently open for vehicular traffic. However, there are utilities located in the alley. The section of Chapel Crossing Road proposed for abandonment is not currently used for vehicular traffic. However, there are sewer and water mains and Georgia Power facilities in the proposed abandonment area.
c. PAST HISTORY: To the best of staff’s determination, the alley has never been used by the public other than for utilities and the portion of Chapel Crossing Road has not been used for vehicular traffic since the road was realigned some years ago.
d. POTENTIAL USE IN THE FUTURE: The portion of the alley and road proposed for abandonment could be used by the public for utilities.
e. BENEFIT TO PUBLIC IN CONTINUING USAGE: The public will continue to benefit from the use of the alley and road proposed for abandonment to contain utilities.
f. BENEFIT TO PUBLIC IN ABANDONMENT: Abandonment would return the property to the tax digest.
For the above reasons, we concur with the request for the abandonment of a portion of the 20’ alley adjacent to Block C, Glynco Annex and a portion of the right-of-way on Chapel Crossing Road shown on the plat and recommend approval by the Board of Commissioners provided utility easements are reserved.
RECOMMENDED MOTION
I move to approve the abandonment a portion of the 20’ alley adjacent to Block C, Glynco Annex and a portion of the right-of-way on Chapel Crossing Road with utility easements being retained. In addition to the sketch and original application, I have attached a list of all property owners with their addresses within 500' of this right-of-way.
