rll -\j ( ); -fll< ITEM 7.4. MEMORANDUM TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: STEVEN B. ACH, CITY PLANNE~ DATE: FEBRUARY 7, 1994 SUBJECT: BEAUDRY EXPRESS - PLACEMENT OF SIGN WITHIN 6TH STREET RIGHT OF WAY REQUEST Construct a sign within 6th Street right of way prior the vacation request being acted upon by the City Council. OVERVIEW e Beaudry Express Convenience Store and Gas Station, at the corner of Proctor Avenue and Highway 10, is nearly completed and ready for business. However, Mr. Beaudry has realized that the best location for his free standing sign would be within 6th Street right of way. Therefore, a request to vacate 6th Street in front of the new Beaudry Express Convenience and Gas Station has been submitted. This vacation request will be brought before the City Council either late February or early March. Unfortunately, the time to process this vacation request conflicts with Mr. Beaudry's desire to have a sign up and operational during the opening of the store. Mr. Beaudry would like to install the sign prior to the vacation request being acted upon by the Council. Staff has reviewed this vacation request and believes 6th Street is no longer needed since its connection with Proctor has been eliminated. There are utilities however, within 6th Street that will require a utility easement be retained to protect these existing utilities. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended the City Council allow Ken Beaudry to construct a sign within 6th Street right of way prior to the vacation request being acted upon by the City Council, with the following stipulations: e P.O.
