right -of -way vacation request may be summarized as follows:
(1) This is a request to vacate the Hamm Avenue street right -of -way between the
right -of -way for South 12 Avenue and the right -of -way for South 13 Avenue. The
petition was received from Yakima Valley Community College on January 27, 2015.
(2) The stated purpose for the request is to safely accommodate campus
maintenance, grounds and security vehicles to connect with the remainder of campus
facilities and eliminate cross traffic conflicts on the Yakima Valley Community College
Campus.
(3) The parcels adjacent to the street right -of -way are Assessor's Parcel Numbers
181325- 32443, 181325- 32446, 181325 -32447 and 181325- 32553.
(4) The applicant/petitioner is the owner of 100% of the property contiguous to

(5) The portion of Hamm Avenue right -of -way to be vacated is legally described
as follows:
"That portion of Hamm Avenue lying westerly of the westerly right -of -way
line of South 12 Avenue and easterly of the easterly right -of -way line of

(6) City of Yakima records indicate that the subject right -of -way was originally

2015, hearing was given more than twenty days before the hearing in the manner required
by RCW 35.79.020 and was given in additional ways as follows:

Publishing of notice in the Yakima Herald- Republic: March 10, 2015
Mailing of notice to the property owners within 300 feet: March 10, 2015
Posting of notice on the property: March 19, 2015
Posting of notice in three public places: March 19, 2015
IV. Hearing Examiner Jurisdiction. The Yakima Municipal Code provides in Sub-
section 1.43.080(H) that the Hearing Examiner shall conduct public hearings on petitions
and resolutions to vacate streets and public rights -of -way pursuant to RCW Chapter
35.79 and that decisions of the Hearing Examiner on such matters shall constitute
recommendations to the Yakima City Council.
V. Environmental Review. Street vacations are categorically exempt from State
Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) review per WAC 197- 11- 800(2)(i) and Chapter 6.88
of the Yakima Municipal Code.
VI. Traffic Study. The City Traffic Engineer has determined that a traffic study is not
required for this street right -of -way vacation request, but a Transportation Capacity
Analysis was conducted for the related Class (3) use application for a new Campus
Operations Complex south of Hamm Avenue that would utilize the vacated area if the
street vacation is approved. The Transportation Capacity Analysis determined that the
proposed Class (3) uses would not result in traffic impacts.
VII. Comprehensive Plan. Street rights -of -way do not have a Comprehensive Plan
designation. Upon approval of street right -of -way vacations, the vacated areas receive
the Comprehensive Plan designation of the adjacent properties. The Yakima Urban Area
Yakima Valley Community College 4
Vacation of Portion of Hamm Ave. Right -
Of -Way Between 12 and 13 Avenues
RWV #001 -15; Petition #15 -01
Comprehensive Plan designates all of the property adjacent to the area to be vacated as
Medium Density Residential.
VIII. Zoning and Land Uses. Zoning for the vacated portion of the Hamm Avenue
right -of -way will be Two - Family Residential (R -2) pursuant to YMC § 15.22.060(E)
which provides that where a public right -of -way is vacated, the vacated area shall have
the zoning district classification of the property to which it accrues. Properties near the
area to be vacated have the following zoning and land uses:
Direction Zoning Land Use
North R -2 Parking Lot
South R -2 Future Campus Expansion
East R-2 Residential
West R -3 Community College
IX. Development Services Team. The Development Services Team met on March
10, 2015. The following comments were submitted:
(1) Development Engineer: Chapter 8.64 of the Yakima Municipal Code (YMC)
requires a commercial driveway approach which complies with that chapter and standard
detail R4 if access is to be maintained to the vacated portion of Hamm Avenue from
either South 12 Avenue or South 13 Avenue. Sidewalk is required to be constructed
per standard detail R5. YMC Chapters 8.67 and 12.05 require that new curb, gutter and
sidewalk be installed along South 12 Avenue and/or South 13 Avenue where access is
not allowed to the vacated Hamm Avenue area. YMC Chapter 8.72 requires that an
excavation and street break permit shall be obtained for all work within the public right -
of -way. YMC Chapter 12.02 requires easements be established per that chapter for all
public facilities such as pipelines for stormwater or sanitary sewer which are left in place.
(2) Water/Irrigation Engineer: There is an existing one -inch water service and
3/4 -inch meter in Hamm Avenue that serves 1208 Hamm Avenue and is connected to the
Yakima Valley Community College 5
Vacation of Portion of Hamm Ave. Right -
Of -Way Between 12 and 13 Avenues
RWV #001 -15; Petition #15-01
six -inch waterline in South 13`" Avenue. As part of the development of the new Campus
Operations Complex, the existing water service and meter will be abandoned by the City.
X. Criteria for the Vacation of Street Right -of -Way. The following five criteria
set forth in the City's application form for street right -of -way vacations are considered in
determining the propriety and requisites of street right -of -way vacations:
(1) Public Benefit and Reasons Supporting the Proposed Vacation and the
Limits of the Proposed Vacation. The limits of the proposed vacation are the portion of
Hamm Avenue between the rights -of -way for South 12 Avenue and South 13 Avenue.
The applicant hopes to include the vacated area within the proposed expansion of its
campus on its property south of Hamm Avenue. The expansion would include a new
Campus Operations Complex consisting of an 11,000- square -foot administration building
and a 13,500- square -foot shop /storage building. The hearing for that Class (3) use
application with a lot coverage adjustment from 60% to 75% followed the hearing for this
street vacation request on April 23, 2015, and that application has been approved by a
Hearing Examiner Class (3) decision also issued on the date of this recommendation. The
applicant/petitioner would be required to obtain a setback adjustment and/or revise the
site plan for its Campus Operations Complex if this street vacation request is not granted.
The requested street vacation would benefit the public because it would allow the
applicant to replace inefficient and inadequate facilities elsewhere on the campus with a
new Campus Operations Complex that would safely accommodate campus maintenance,
grounds and security vehicles that could connect with the remainder of campus facilities
without cross - traffic conflicts on the campus.
(2) Necessity for the Right -of -Way as Access to Property. The right -of -way
involved in this request is not needed for access to any property because all of the
property on both sides of the area to be vacated is owned by Yakima Valley Community
College / State Board of Community & Technical Colleges and abuts a public street.
(3) Consistency with the Six Year Transportation Improvement Plan, the
Urban Area Comprehensive Plan and other Official City Plans and Policies. The
requested street vacation will be consistent with the City's plans because there are no
plans for improvement of the subject Hamm Avenue right -of -way area in the City's Six
Year Transportation Improvement Plan or in any of the City's other plans or policies.
Yakima Valley Community College 6
Vacation of Portion of Hamm Ave. Right -
Of -Way Between 12 and 13 Avenues
RWV #001 -15; Petition #15 -01
(4) Consistency with Existing and Anticipated Development in the Area
Based on Zoning, Current Use and Long -Range Plans. The requested right -of -way
vacation would not adversely affect any existing or anticipated development in the area.
The properties on both sides of Hamm Avenue and to the west which are all owned by
Yakima Valley Community College / State Board of Community & Technical Colleges
are or will be used for community college purposes. The vacation is consistent with the
YVCC Campus Master Plan.
(5) Provisions for Relocation of Existing Utilities or Easements for Existing
Utilities. The testimony at the hearing was to the effect that there is a City sanitary sewer
pipeline in the center of Hamm Avenue which will remain in its current location. An
easement must be established for any public or franchised utilities in the vacated area as
required by the City and YMC Chapter 12.02.
XI. Fair Market Appraisal and Compensation to the City. City Resolution R-
2013 -089 does not require compensation for the area to be vacated because ownership of
the vacated property will revert to the State of Washington as owner of the property
abutting the vacated street right -of -way.
CONCLUSIONS
Based on the Findings, the Hearing Examiner reaches the following Conclusions:
(1) The Hearing Examiner has jurisdiction and authority by virtue of Subsection
1.43.080(H) of the Yakima Municipal Code to conduct an open record public hearing
regarding an application, petition and resolution to vacate a public street right -of -way
area and to make a recommendation to the City Council relative thereto.
(2) All public notice requirements for vacation of a portion of street right -of -way
have been completed in accordance with applicable statutes and ordinances.
(3) SEPA review was not required because street right -of -way vacations are
categorically exempt from SEPA review.
Yakima Valley Community College 7
Vacation of Portion of Hamm Ave. Right -
Of -Way Between 12 and 13 Avenues
RWV #001 -15; Petition #15 -01
(4) A traffic analysis is not required for the requested street right -of -way vacation.
(5) Since the applicant /petitioner owns all of the property abutting the Hamm
Avenue right -of -way area to be vacated, petition signatures were obtained from 100% of
the owners abutting the area to be vacated.
(6) The right -of -way to be vacated was dedicated to Yakima County by the Plat of
Johnson's Orchards Home Tracts on December 5, 1921, and the area was annexed by the
City of Yakima on June 5, 1947.
(7) The Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan designates the areas abutting
the area to be vacated as Medium Density Residential.
(8) The Yakima Urban Area Zoning Ordinance classifies the areas abutting the
area to be vacated as Two - Family Residential (R -2).
(9) No properties would be denied access to the public street system as a result of
this right -of -way vacation since all parcels will have frontage on a public street.
(10) This request for street right -of -way vacation would not conflict with any
planned street improvement projects or other City plans or projects.
(10) No testimony or written comments were submitted in opposition to the
requested street right -of -way vacation.
(11) The requested street right -of -way vacation would not affect any public or
franchised utility lines because an easement will be established for the City sanitary
sewer pipeline in Hamm Avenue and /or for any other public or franchised utility lines
located in the area to be vacated.
(12) The requirements of RCW 35.79 and the City's five criteria governing the
approval of public street right -of -way vacations have all been satisfied.
(13) Since the vacated right -of -way would accrue to property owned by the State
of Washington, no compensation is required to be paid for the vacated area under City
Resolution R- 2013 -089.
(14) If the Yakima City Council approves the requested right -of -way vacation, the
vacated right -of -way would normally accrue one -half to the property on the north side of
this portion of Hamm Avenue and one -half to the property on the south side of the
vacated area pursuant to RCW 35.79.040. YVCC would prefer that all of the vacated
property accrue to its property on the south side of Hamm Avenue so it can be used for its
Yakima Valley Community College 8
Vacation of Portion of Hamm Ave. Right -
Of -Way Between 12 and 13 Avenues
RWV #001 -15; Petition #15 -01
proposed Campus Operations Complex because it would be of no value to add vacated
area to its parking lot on the north. Since Yakima Valley Community College / State
Board of Community & Technical Colleges owns all of the property on both sides of the
area to be vacated, the Hearing Examiner agrees with the City's Planning Division and
Legal Department that the vacation ordinance can allow all of the vacated area to accrue
to the abutting property on the south in order to avoid the need for the applicant/petitioner
to apply to the City for a boundary line adjustment to accomplish that same result.
RECOMMENDATION
The Hearing Examiner recommends to the Yakima City Council that the portion
of Hamm Avenue street right -of -way lying westerly of the westerly right -of -way line of
South 12` Avenue and easterly of the easterly right -of -way line of South 13 Avenue as
described in RWV #001 -15 and Petition #15 -01 should be vacated and added to the
property abutting the vacated area on the south, subject to the following conditions:
(1) A new legal description shall be provided to the City for the property of the
applicant/petitioner south of the vacated area which shall include all of the vacated area.
(2) An easement shall be established as required by the City and YMC Chapter
12.02 for the City sanitary sewer pipeline and any other public or franchised utility lines
located in the vacated portion of Hamm Avenue.
(3) The vacated area shall be zoned Two - Family Residential (R -2).
DATED this 7 day of May, 2015.

petition was received from Yakima Valley Community College on January 27, 2015.

IV. Hearing Examiner Jurisdiction. The Yakima Municipal Code provides in Sub-
section 1.43.080(H) that the Hearing Examiner shall conduct public hearings on petitions
and resolutions to vacate streets and public rights -of -way pursuant to RCW Chapter
35.79 and that decisions of the Hearing Examiner on such matters shall constitute
recommendations to the Yakima City Council.
V. Environmental Review. Street vacations are categorically exempt from State
Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) review per WAC 197- 11- 800(2)(i) and Chapter 6.88
of the Yakima Municipal Code.
VI. Traffic Study. The City Traffic Engineer has determined that a traffic study is not
required for this street right -of -way vacation request, but a Transportation Capacity
Analysis was conducted for the related Class (3) use application for a new Campus
Operations Complex south of Hamm Avenue that would utilize the vacated area if the
street vacation is approved. The Transportation Capacity Analysis determined that the
proposed Class (3) uses would not result in traffic impacts.
VII. Comprehensive Plan. Street rights -of -way do not have a Comprehensive Plan
designation. Upon approval of street right -of -way vacations, the vacated areas receive
the Comprehensive Plan designation of the adjacent properties. The Yakima Urban Area

Comprehensive Plan designates all of the property adjacent to the area to be vacated as
Medium Density Residential.
VIII. Zoning and Land Uses. Zoning for the vacated portion of the Hamm Avenue
right -of -way will be Two - Family Residential (R -2) pursuant to YMC § 15.22.060(E)
which provides that where a public right -of -way is vacated, the vacated area shall have
the zoning district classification of the property to which it accrues. Properties near the
area to be vacated have the following zoning and land uses:
Direction Zoning Land Use
North R -2 Parking Lot
South R -2 Future Campus Expansion
East R -2 Residential
West R -3 Community College
IX. Development Services Team. The Development Services Team met on March
10, 2015. The following comments were submitted:
(1) Development Engineer: Chapter 8.64 of the Yakima Municipal Code (YMC)
requires a commercial driveway approach which complies with that chapter and standard
detail R4 if access is to be maintained to the vacated portion of Hamm Avenue from
either South 12` Avenue or South 13 Avenue. Sidewalk is required to be constructed
per standard detail R5. YMC Chapters 8.67 and 12.05 require that new curb, gutter and
sidewalk be installed along South 12 Avenue and /or South 13` Avenue where access is
not allowed to the vacated Hamm Avenue area. YMC Chapter 8.72 requires that an
excavation and street break permit shall be obtained for all work within the public right -
of -way. YMC Chapter 12.02 requires easements be established per that chapter for all
public facilities such as pipelines for stormwater or sanitary sewer which are left in place.
(2) Water /Irrigation Engineer: There is an existing one -inch water service and
3/4 -inch meter in Hamm Avenue that serves 1208 Hamm Avenue and is connected to the
Yakima Valley Community College 5

r te• -- �.- -�
six -inch waterline in South 13 Avenue. As part of the development of the new Campus
Operations Complex, the existing water service and meter will be abandoned by the City.
X. Criteria for the Vacation of Street Right -of -Way. The following five criteria
set forth in the City's application form for street right -of -way vacations are considered in
determining the propriety and requisites of street right -of -way vacations:
(1) Public Benefit and Reasons Supporting the Proposed Vacation and the
Limits of the Proposed Vacation. The limits of the proposed vacation are the portion of
Hamm Avenue between the rights -of -way for South 12 Avenue and South 13` Avenue.
The applicant hopes to include the vacated area within the proposed expansion of its
campus on its property south of Hamm Avenue. The expansion would include a new
Campus Operations Complex consisting of an 11,000- square -foot administration building
and a 13,500- square -foot shop /storage building. The hearing for that Class (3) use
application with a lot coverage adjustment from 60% to 75% followed the hearing for this
street vacation request on April 23, 2015, and that application has been approved by a
Hearing Examiner Class (3) decision also issued on the date of this recommendation. The
applicant/petitioner would be required to obtain a setback adjustment and /or revise the
site plan for its Campus Operations Complex if this street vacation request is not granted.
The requested street vacation would benefit the public because it would allow the
applicant to replace inefficient and inadequate facilities elsewhere on the campus with a
new Campus Operations Complex that would safely accommodate campus maintenance,
grounds and security vehicles that could connect with the remainder of campus facilities
without cross - traffic conflicts on the campus.
(2) Necessity for the Right -of -Way as Access to Property. The right -of -way
involved in this request is not needed for access to any property because all of the
property on both sides of the area to be vacated is owned by Yakima Valley Community
College / State Board of Community & Technical Colleges and abuts a public street.
(3) Consistency with the Six Year Transportation Improvement Plan, the
Urban Area Comprehensive Plan and other Official City Plans and Policies. The
requested street vacation will be consistent with the City's plans because there are no
plans for improvement of the subject Hamm Avenue right -of -way area in the City's Six
Year Transportation Improvement Plan or in any of the City's other plans or policies.

DOC. INDEX #
A A - I _
(4) Consistency with Existing and Anticipated Development in the Area
Based on Zoning, Current Use and Long -Range Plans. The requested right -of -way
vacation would not adversely affect any existing or anticipated development in the area.
The properties on both sides of Hamm Avenue and to the west which are all owned by
Yakima Valley Community College / State Board of Community & Technical Colleges
are or will be used for community college purposes. The vacation is consistent with the
YVCC Campus Master Plan.
(5) Provisions for Relocation of Existing Utilities or Easements for Existing
Utilities. The testimony at the hearing was to the effect that there is a City sanitary sewer
pipeline in the center of Hamm Avenue which will remain in its current location. An
easement must be established for any public or franchised utilities in the vacated area as
required by the City and YMC Chapter 12.02.
XI. Fair Market Appraisal and Compensation to the City. City Resolution R-
2013 -089 does not require compensation for the area to be vacated because ownership of
the vacated property will revert to the State of Washington as owner of the property
abutting the vacated street right -of -way.
CONCLUSIONS
Based on the Findings, the Hearing Examiner reaches the following Conclusions:
(1) The Hearing Examiner has jurisdiction and authority by virtue of Subsection
1.43.080(H) of the Yakima Municipal Code to conduct an open record public hearing
regarding an application, petition and resolution to vacate a public street right -of -way
area and to make a recommendation to the City Council relative thereto.
(2) All public notice requirements for vacation of a portion of street right -of -way
have been completed in accordance with applicable statutes and ordinances.
(3) SEPA review was not required because street right -of -way vacations are
categorically exempt from SEPA review.

RWV #001 -15; Petition #15 -01

RA
(4) A traffic analysis is not required for the requested street right -of -way vacation.
(5) Since the applicant /petitioner owns all of the property abutting the Hamm
Avenue right -of -way area to be vacated, petition signatures were obtained from 100% of
the owners abutting the area to be vacated.
(6) The right -of -way to be vacated was dedicated to Yakima County by the Plat of
Johnson's Orchards Home Tracts on December 5, 1921, and the area was annexed by the
City of Yakima on June 5, 1947.
(7) The Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan designates the areas abutting
the area to be vacated as Medium Density Residential.
(8) The Yakima Urban Area Zoning Ordinance classifies the areas abutting the
area to be vacated as Two - Family Residential (R -2).
(9) No properties would be denied access to the public street system as a result of
this right -of -way vacation since all parcels will have frontage on a public street.
(10) This request for street right -of -way vacation would not conflict with any
planned street improvement projects or other City plans or projects.
(10) No testimony or written comments were submitted in opposition to the
requested street right -of -way vacation.
(11) The requested street right -of -way vacation would not affect any public or
franchised utility lines because an easement will be established for the City sanitary
sewer pipeline in Hamm Avenue and /or for any other public or franchised utility lines
located in the area to be vacated.
(12) The requirements of RCW 35.79 and the City's five criteria governing the
approval of public street right -of -way vacations have all been satisfied.
(13) Since the vacated right -of -way would accrue to property owned by the State
of Washington, no compensation is required to be paid for the vacated area under City
Resolution R- 2013 -089.
(14) If the Yakima City Council approves the requested right -of -way vacation, the
vacated right -of -way would normally accrue one -half to the property on the north side of
this portion of Hamm Avenue and one -half to the property on the south side of the
vacated area pursuant to RCW 35.79.040. YVCC would prefer that all of the vacated
property accrue to its property on the south side of Hamm Avenue so it can be used for its

AA-
proposed Campus Operations Complex because it would be of no value to add vacated
area to its parking lot on the north. Since Yakima Valley Community College / State
Board of Community & Technical Colleges owns all of the property on both sides of the
area to be vacated, the Hearing Examiner agrees with the City's Planning Division and
Legal Department that the vacation ordinance can allow all of the vacated area to accrue
to the abutting property on the south in order to avoid the need for the applicant/petitioner
to apply to the City for a boundary line adjustment to accomplish that same result.
RECOMMENDATION
The Hearing Examiner recommends to the Yakima City Council that the portion
of Hamm Avenue street right -of -way lying westerly of the westerly right -of -way line of
South 12 Avenue and easterly of the easterly right -of -way line of South 13 Avenue as
described in RWV #001 -15 and Petition #15 -01 should be vacated and added to the
property abutting the vacated area on the south, subject to the following conditions:
(1) A new legal description shall be provided to the City for the property of the
applicant/petitioner south of the vacated area which shall include all of the vacated area.
(2) An easement shall be established as required by the City and YMC Chapter
12.02 for the City sanitary sewer pipeline and any other public or franchised utility lines
located in the vacated portion of Hamm Avenue.
(3) The vacated area shall be zoned Two - Family Residential (R -2).
DATED this 7 day of May, 2015.

There are no future City plans for development of the subject right -of -way. The City of
Yakima's records indicate that the subject right -of -way was originally dedicated to the
County of Yakima by the Plat of Johnson's Orchards Home Tracts on December 5,
1921.This area was annexed by the City of Yakima on June 5, 1947.
Hearing Examiner Authority: The Hearing Examiner has jurisdiction to conduct public
hearings on petitions and resolutions to vacate streets and public right -of -way pursuant
to RCW Ch. 35.79. Decisions of the examiner on such matters shall constitute a
recommendation to the City Council (YMC Ch. 1.43.080(H)).
Urban Area Zoning Ordinance: Technically, street rights -of -way are not designated
with an underlying zoning district. However, upon vacation they become zoned the same
as the properties to which they are immediately contiguous. In this case, the contiguous
zoning is Two - Family Residential (R -2). The entire portion of Hamm Avenue to be
vacated, will be zoned R -2 upon vacation.
Urban Area Comprehensive Plan: Street rights -of -way do not contain an underlying
comprehensive plan designation. Upon vacation they will obtain the same comprehensive
plan designation as the properties to which they are immediately contiguous. The subject
portions of right -of -way, once vacated, will have a Future Land Use Designation of
Medium Density Residential.
Revised Code of Washington (RCW) 35.79: This chapter of state law stipulates the
state's requirements for the process of vacating street right -of -way. All requirements of
this chapter that can be accomplished prior to the public hearing have been fulfilled. State
law provides that the property within the limits to be vacated shall belong to the owners
of the lots abutting each side of the vacated area, one -half to the owners on each side of
the vacated area. (RCW § 35.79.040)
ZONING AND LAND USE

include five criteria that must be met in the granting of vacation petitions. They are as
follows:
1) The petition must explain the public benefit of the project, the reasoning of the
proposed vacation and the limits of the vacation.
Petitioner Response: The vacation and closure of Hamm Avenue from 13th' Avenue to
12th Avenue is being requested to safely accommodate campus maintenance, grounds
and security vehicles to connect with the remainder of campus facilities and eliminate
cross traffic conflicts on the Yakima Valley Community College campus.
Staff Response: Vacating the right -of -way is in the best interest of the public and will
provide for the safety of the employees and students, as well as, the general public.
2) The vacation of right -of -way does not deny sole access to any property.

property. Yakima Valley Community College / State Board of Community & Technical
Colleges owns the properties situated south, west and north of Hamm Avenue from 13th
Avenue to 12th Avenue.
HOC.
13ORArchitccture / 'NC(' N DEX
RVW #001 -15 ^µ
Y�'
Staff Response: It has been determined that no sole access will be prohibited due to this
right -of -way vacation.
3) Petitions should be consistent with the Six -Year Transportation Improvement
Plan, Urban Area Comprehensive Plan and other official city plans and policies
Petitioner Response: The proposed street vacation of Hamm Avenue, from 13th Avenue
to 12th Avenue. does not interfere with existing plans of the City.

4) Vacation requests should be appropriate with existing and anticipated
development in the area, based on zoning, current use and long range plans.

with the YVCC Campus Master Plan.

expense or an adequate easement provided. Where appropriate, if existing utilities
are deemed unnecessary, this requirement may be waived.
Applicant Response: The existing public utility lines located in the right -of -way will remain
in place.
Staff Response: No utilities will be affected by this right -of -way vacation.
FAIR MARKET APPRAISAL AND COMPENSATION TO THE CITY
City Resolution #R- 2013 -089 specifies the requirements under which compensation must
be paid to the City for vacation of public streets and alleys. No compensation will be
required to be paid to the City due to the fact that the vacated street's ownership will revert
to the State of Washington as owner of the property abutting the vacated portion of the
alley, street or right -of -way.
TRAFFIC STUDY
The City of Yakima Traffic Engineer has determined that a traffic study is not required for
this right -of -way vacation. However, a TCO was conducted in compliance with the
concurrent Type (3) Review. No traffic impacts were found. (See File No. TCO #001 -15)

RIGHT -OF -WAY VACATION NARRATIVE
A. What is the public benefit, reason for, and limitations of the proposed right -of -way vacation?
The vacation and closure of Hamm Avenue from 13th Avenue to 12th Avenue is being requested to
safely accommodate campus maintenance, grounds and security vehicles to connect with the remainder of
campus facilities and eliminate cross traffic conflicts on the Yakima Valley Community College campus.
B. Does the vacation deny sole access to a public street for any property?
The vacation will not deny sole access to a public street for any property. Yakima Valley Community
College / State Board of Community & Technical Colleges owns the properties situated south, west and
north of Hamm Avenue from 13th Avenue to 12th Avenue.
C. Is the proposal consistent with existing plans of the City? (Petitions should be consistent with the
Six -year Transportation Improvement Plan, the Urban Area Comprehensive Plan and other official City
Plans and policies)
The proposed street vacation of Hamm Avenue, from 13th Avenue to 12th Avenue, does not interfere
with existing plans of the City.
D. Is the vacation appropriate with existing zoning and land use? (Vacation of Right -of -Ways should be
appropriate with existing and anticipated development in the area, based upon zoning, current use
and long -range plans)
The vacation is appropriate with existing zoning and land use. The existing land use on both sides of
Hamm Avenue as well as to the west is Community College / University and these properties are owned
by Yakima Valley Community College / State Board of Community & Technical Colleges. The vacation
is consistent with the YVCC Campus Master Plan.
E. Are there any public or franchised utilities in the right -of -way to be vacated and if so, will they be
relocated?
The existing public utility lines located in the right -of -way will remain in place.
