ROW18-0002/ORD 1881-Request to vacate approximately 0.129 acres (5,629 square feet) of Town-owned Right-of-Way known as Glade Road (Tax Map No. 222-A 16) by Adam and Tonya Czesnowski (applicant).
The Blacksburg Planning and Building Department has received a request by Adam and Tonya Czesnowski to vacate approximately 5,629 square feet of unbuilt Right-of-Way along Glade Road. The applicant owns the property at 3511 Meadowbrook Drive (Tax Map No. 222-A 16) which also has frontage along Glade Road. The intent of the Right-of-Way vacation request is to provide sufficient buildable space outside the Creek Valley Overlay District for a single family home. A 5-foot trail easement totaling 5,927 square feet will also be dedicated along the property’s Meadowbrook Drive frontage for future bike and pedestrian improvements. If the request is approved, the Town will retain a minimum 50-foot Right-of-Way along Glade Road, which allows for future bike and pedestrian improvements. This request does not represent an increase in density above either the Future Land Use designation, or the allowable density under the Zoning District regulations.
