Information Contact: Stacy Grear
Phone Number: (404) 371-2257
PURPOSE:
To consider adopting a resolution to abandon a 0.066-acre section of Oxford Road NE right of way that has ceased to be used by the public to the extent that no substantial public purpose is served by said right of way.
NEED/IMPACT:
State law requires that a public hearing be held on a potential abandonment of right of way.
The adjoining property owner has requested that 0.066-acre section of Oxford Rd NE right of way be abandoned. The subject property is zoned “C-1” and valued at $35,200 by appraisal. Sale of the property would return it to the tax roll. The subject property is no longer needed for right of way purposes by DeKalb County; no substantial public purpose is served by its continued existence.
The County Attorney’s Office has reviewed the attached resolution and has approved it as-to-form
FISCAL IMPACT:
Not known at this time.
RECOMMENDATION:
Recommended Action
Adopt the attached resolution to abandon a section of a segment of Oxford Rd NE right of way and authorize the Chief Executive Officer to execute all necessary documents.
