On January 26, 2022, the City of Yakima Department of Community Development received a petition from Pape Properties Inc for the vacation of a portion of right-of- way in the southwest corner of "Tract B" where S 18th St becomes Pacific Ave, located in the Regional Development (RD) zoning district. The proponent has requested this vacation for the purpose of constructing a 24,000 sq ft building to serve a farm/implements and tools and heavy construction equipment business. There are no future City plans for development of the subject right-of-way.
On April 14, 2022, the Hearing Examiner for the City of Yakima conducted an open-record public hearing regarding the requested right-of-way vacation. On April 28, 2022, the Hearing Examiner issued a recommendation stating that the right-of-way be vacated pending City Council approval.
The complete hearing record was distributed to City Council in the agenda packet on May 17, 2022 and can be found online at: https://www.yakimawa.gov/council/agendas-and-minutes/
