Comments / Recommendations

+
The reviewing departments and organizations had these comments:

- Planning: Planning does not object to the closure of this right-of-way, as it is not a developed alley and therefore does not provide access to any properties.
- City of Knoxville Engineering: City Engineering has no objection to this closure. Should this right-of-way be closed, the City will reserve easements for all drainage facilities and utilities, if there are any current facilities, located in or within five (5) feet of the property described herein. No easements are reserved if there are no current facilities within the closure area. If any existing facilities or utilities are found not feasible to the site development or use, they may be removed and relocated, subject to City Engineering and/or other applicable easement holder review and approval.
- Addressing: The proposed alley closure is not expected to impact any existing addresses.
- Fire Department: Approved to close for fire department access.
- TDOT: The department takes no exception to this request.
- KUB: We have reviewed our records and, as far as we have been able to determine, KUB has no existing utility facilities located within the subject right-of-way area and we have no objection to the requested closure. However, KUB does not release and hereby retains all easements and rights for existing facilities, whether or not identified in our research.
- AT&T: AT&T does not object to this closure.
