between Block 76 and Block 77.
The Hearing was called to order by Chairman Norman
Freske.
Engineer Larry Koshak explained what street was to be
vacated. It lies between Block 76 and Block 77 of the Otsego
Townsite and is about 320 ft. long. The Street was part of
the Otsego Townsite platted many years ago and was never
actually built and used as a street.
Mario Giordano moved that the vacation of the street be
postponed at this time.
Attorney Bill Radzwill explained that only the Town
Board can make a motion at this meeting. The residents can
present facts pertaining to the street and its vacation at
this time. Mario Giordano then presented the Town Board with
letter signed by 9 Township residents requesting that the
vacation of the street be tabled at this time because the
sole purpose of the vacation is to reposition or modify the
layout of land owned by the Township, and annexing additional
land needed to build a new Town Hall and because it will
prejudice the outcome of the Hearing with the Board of
Adjustment and the Enviromental Assessment Board.
Bill Radzwill explained that the title to the Township
property has been researched and found that the Township has
a clear title to the property. He also explained that the
street in question' has never been used as a public road and
basically the use of it will stay the same as it has been as
the Township owns the property on both sides of the street.
