Council President Bauch opened the Public Hearing at 7:20 p.m. Graydon Smith, 13861 18th Avenue SW, Seattle, stated he owns Lots 2 and 4 and developed Lots 1 and 3. He would like vacation of entire South 152nd as it traverses the property known as Hampton Heights and property to the west between Hampton Heights and Sunwood. It was dedicated about four years ago to allow entrance of emergency equipment. The situation has now changed, the road has been vacated, properties have been built on the vacated land. He said he would like vacation of the land he dedicated to the City. The City has no need of the property. There is a need for control of the ingress and egress to the properties. Mr. Smith gave a copy of the easements to the City Administrator. Councilman Bohrer asked what form of an agreement was made with the City when Mr. Smith dedicated it to the City. Graydon Smith said it was an agreement between five to ten people in the City of Tukwila. Mayor Van Dusen asked if the easement was granted because the City wanted to have a fire lane and then it was found it was not needed? Graydon Smith said at the time the property was dedicated to the City the Fire Department and Police Department were located on top of the hill. The traffic was to come through Sunwood. It was a wide open street. Councilman Duffie asked if the City vacates the street does Mr. Smith intend to have the property as a street? Graydon Smith said they would have the same access to all of the properties as they would have had if the street had come all of the way through. They would like to control the traffic. They would like the same ingress and egress that Sunwood has. Graydon Smith said if there are four different owners and they all sell they would like to be able to always go in and out. Easements have been created for all utilities to service the properties. The utilities could never be taken away. Council Member Harris said Mr. Salant said this request was for security reasons. She asked if Mr. Smith was contemplating a gate? Graydon Smith said there would have to be several hundred units to be able to afford security.
