The City Council of Jacksonville approved an ordinance to close and abandon an unopened and unimproved portion of Vandeviere Avenue, located in Council District 9, as recorded in Plat Book 10, Page 41 of the public records of Duval County. This action was requested by EB Freight LLC, the applicant, for the purpose of storing equipment for its trucking company, fencing the area, installing a gate, and placing crushed asphalt on the ground. The applicant paid a $2,091.00 closure application fee. The closure was reviewed and approved by various city, state, and utility agencies, with no objections received. The approval is subject to conditions, including the applicant's execution and delivery of a Hold Harmless Covenant to the City of Jacksonville, indemnifying the City against any claims arising from the use of the abandoned right-of-way. The property will remain unobstructed by any permanent improvements that may impede the City or JEA's reserved easement rights.
