Leavenworth County commissioners voted to vacate a portion of Fall Leaf Road after planning staff reported the right-of-way was dedicated but never developed and that no county departments or utilities raised objections.

Planning and zoning staff told the board the section of right-of-way was platted as part of the Heritage Farm Subdivision and a condition on the plat prevented issuance of building permits until the right-of-way was vacated; the applicant owning the affected lots requested the vacation and staff recommended approval after contacting utilities and other departments (staff presentation). The chair opened a public hearing; no members of the public testified for or against the proposal, and the board closed the hearing before voting.

A commissioner moved to vacate the identified section of Fall Leaf Road; the motion was seconded and the board recorded affirmative votes, approving the road vacation and clearing the plat condition so the applicant may pursue building permits or other property use consistent with county codes.

The staff report noted the right-of-way appears never to have been built and that no utility or county objections were recorded. The board formalized the action in the meeting record as a board order related to the subdivision plat. Any subsequent permitting or development will follow planning and zoning review and applicable county standards.
