BACKGROUND
The property owner, Ecoplexus Inc., wishes to close a portion of a platted right-of-way at the end of Tennessee Trail aka SR 1677. The portion requested to be closed is contained within tax property parcel number 164778, a portion of what the NCDOT describes as being a road .2 miles in length and approximately sixty (60) feet of the publicly dedicated right-of-way known as State Road 1677, aka Tennessee Trail, which enters the abovementioned parcel on the Northern boundary, but does not continue through and provides no benefit to any adjacent parcels or the general public after it enters Tax Parcel 164778.
The front portion of SR 1677 would remain in the NCDOT system from the intersection of High Shoals Road, 188 feet in length and sixty (60) feet in width, located between the tax property parcel numbers 164730 and 164731, as shown on the attached map depicting the area.
The NCDOT makes the ultimate decision as to whether such petition will be granted; and prior to the NCDOT deciding whether to abandon said road, the County the road is located in needs to provide the NCDOT with a resolution of approval. This Resolution is intended to provide the NCDOT with such approval.
