March 22, 2018
Assistant Director Beutler stated the residential lot north of Harbor Freight as well as Harbor Freight are under the
same ownership for the proposed vacation. He indicated a cell tower is located at the end of 16th Street and staff
wanted to ensure sufficient access to the cell tower remained. He stated the proposed vacation includes a 25’ cross
access and public utility easement, which includes water access. Assistant Director Beutler also stated a turnaround
was never constructed at this location, Harbor Freight will allow an easement for turnaround traffic for large
vehicles as well as the general public. An additional 10’ easement is being granted due to potential height
maintenance of the cell tower as well as snow storage. He reiterated that all adjacent property owners were notified
of the easement although not all owners signed off on the application. All easements were executed by the
applicant. To the response of Councilmember Francis, Assistant Director Beutler stated access to a current storage
unit on 15th Street will remain as is. He also clarified there is limited access due to the dead end street.
Councilmember Freeman stated due to the proposed Harbor Freight expansion, the setbacks would not be met,
hence the vacation request. Assistant Director Beutler stated the submitted request is the entire portion of the right-
of-way be vacated to the southern lot. He clarified the retail store is zoned commercial and the property to the north
is zoned residential. The 25’ cross access easement will act as a buffer, which is currently a vacant lot. A barrier
could be installed at the end of 16th Street for public information.
Mayor Casper requested any public comment.
Clint Boyle, Idaho Falls, appeared. Mr. Boyle believes this project indicates the economy is doing well and
expanding. He indicated Harbor Freight is looking to expand to accommodate their growth and the only reasonable
area for expansion was to the northern area which required the street vacation process. Mr. Boyle believes all
surrounding areas were considered, including the cell tower. He stated discussion has occurred with the cell tower
owner, who is located in California, regarding concerns and provisions. He indicated the cell tower owner was
unavailable to sign off, therefore the need of the public hearing. Mr. Boyle stated there is preference of the entire
right-of-way go to the Harbor Freight parcel, being they own both sides of the street, for setback requirements.
Mayor Casper closed the public hearing.
Councilmember Smede stated she is pleased to hear conversation is occurring with the adjacent property owner to
mitigate any concerns.
