Full summary

This ordinance, initiated by the Bureau of Engineering, dedicates a public easement at the location bounded by 98th Street, Bellanca Avenue, and Aviation Boulevard, identified under Right of Way reference number 36000-10298. Easement dedications of this type formally transfer a property interest to the public, typically to secure right-of-way for streets, sidewalks, or utilities as part of a development or improvement condition. The Bureau of Engineering submitted the initial proposal in March 2026 and followed with a revised City Engineer's communication dated April 2, 2026. Council Member Traci Park (11th District) moved to adopt the revised report on April 29, 2026, with Council Member Nithya Raman (4th District) as the second. The motion was that the Council adopt the revised communication from the City Engineer in full. The full Council voted 13-0-2 in favor, with two members abstaining. Following the Council vote, the ordinance was finalized and published, taking effect on May 19, 2026. The file remains technically open under City rules for a reconsideration period but is substantively complete. The easement is now formally dedicated as public right-of-way.
