SUBJECT: RESOLUTION NO. 2007-27 - A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE

SUMMARY
On June 26, 2007, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2007-23 declaring its intention to vacate
Denton Avenue between Garvey Avenue and Virginia Street, and setting July 24, 2007 as the date
for a public hearing on this matter. Due to the lack of a quorum and cancellation of the City
Council's July 24, 2007 meeting, the public hearing was rescheduled to August 14, 2007.
Staff Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2007-27 vacating Denton Avenue
between Garvey Avenue and Virginia Street.
ANALYSIS
Following the City Council's adoption of Resolution No. 2007-23 on June 26, 2007, declaring its
intention to vacate Denton Avenue between Garvey Avenue and Virginia Street, staff sent letters to
the affected utility companies and public works agencies requesting the location of their facilities and
comments on the proposed street vacation. Staff also contacted the police and fire departments for
comments. The City received responses from the Los Angeles County Department of Public Works,
Southern California Edison, and Southern California Gas Company requesting that access be
maintained for facility maintenance. To address these requests, the attached street vacation
resolution reserves the necessary utility easements.

This item has been noticed through the regular agenda notification process. Notice of the public
hearing was provided in accordance with Section 8322 of the Streets and Highways Code which
requires publication of the notice of public hearing at least two times and posting of the street at least
