Title: 525 South State Street Vacation for City Council Approval (SV25-0002) - A proposal to vacate the northern 26.5 feet of the South University right-of-way between South State Street and East University Avenue. All properties abutting this right of way are owned by the University of Michigan. Ward 1.
Summary
The Ann Arbor City Planning Commission is considering a proposal for the vacation of a segment of right-of-way (ROW) on South University Avenue, specifically 26.5 feet wide from South State Street to East University Avenue, totaling approximately 0.7 acres. This request, initiated by the owner of 525 South State Street, seeks to return the unused ROW to the University of Michigan. The area is currently part of the University’s Diag and does not impact public access, as existing sidewalks will remain intact. This action aligns the ownership of the land with its current use and stems from a previous collaboration between the University and the City during street reconstruction in 2020. The approval of this vacation is significant for maintaining the integrity of land use and
