BACKGROUND:

East Lane was offered to the County for road purposes on the Map entitled “Bolla Acres Unit No. 3 Contra Costa County, California,” which Map was filed in the Office of the Recorder of the County of Contra Costa, State of California, on April 10, 1953 in Volume 50 Maps, at Page 17. The County Board of Supervisors accepted the Offer of Dedication declaring the Streets in Bolla Acres Unit 3 to be County Roads by deed, under Document Series number 22275 or Book 2311, Page 99 recorded May 4, 1954.   
  
The existing County-maintained roadway is 20 feet wide. The applicant and owner of the parcel adjacent to the roadway is preparing to add additional improvements to their property that exceed the setback requirements. As the entire 50-foot width of the roadway has never been utilized, the applicants are requesting that the County vacate a portion of the excess road right of way that will enable them to meet the setback requirements for their future improvements.  

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The County may be responsible for the ongoing maintenance of this excess road right of way.
