Subject: Public Hearing for the Consideration of the Vacation of a Portion of a Roadway known as Collier Avenue (CR#306C) in the Nice area
Executive Summary:
Ms. Diane DeMichele, owner of the Boathouse Bar and Grill, has petitioned the Board of Supervisors (Board) for the vacation of a portion of the roadway known as Collier Avenue (CR#306C). The portion to be vacated is unimproved, approximately 220 feet in length and extends from the intersection with Lakeshore Blvd southerly to Clear Lake. The portion north of Lakeshore Blvd will not be vacated.
BACKGROUND
Ms. DeMichele’s and the Boathouse Bar and Grill wish to expand their docks and parking lot for seasonal customer use. The proposed vacation will not ‘landlock’ any parcel. All recorded private access easements will remain in place as will any public or private utility easements.
On May 23, 2024, the Planning Commission heard the request for the vacation and found it to be in conformance with the Lake County General Plan. During this public hearing there was no public opposition to the proposed vacation.
Resolution of Vacation
A Resolution of Intent to vacate a roadway known as Collier Avenue was adopted by the Board on June 18, 2024. All required notices were posted.
