PURPOSE:
To grant an encroachment agreement in City right-of-way for the installation of one (1) canopy at 120 W Lewis Street. When public or private entities request to use City right-of-way, it is required that they secure approval by City Council.
BACKGROUND:
Owner of the property, ZCD II, LLC approached the City to install one (1) canopy in City right-of-way to provide overhead shelter and shade at 120 W Lewis Street.
Greensboro City Charter 4.128 (c) allows City Council to grant an encroachment beyond the existing building line for erecting a structure over the City right-of-way if the encroachment will not cause a public nuisance or unreasonably interfere with the use of streets and sidewalks by the public.
Because the canopy is located above the doorway, it will not cause a public nuisance and will not unreasonably interfere with the use of streets and sidewalks by the public.
This encroachment has been reviewed and approved by Information Technology, Engineering & Inspections, Transportation, Water Resources, and Legal.
BUDGET IMPACT:
There will be no budget impact.
RECOMMENDATION / ACTION REQUESTED:
Information Technology recommends that City Council grant an encroachment for the installation of canopy in City right-of-way at 120 W Lewis Street.
