Street Vacations

Street vacations allow property owners to petition the Seattle City Council to acquire public right-of-way next to their property from the City. Street vacations “vacate” the public’s right to use a street and return it to private property. Street vacations are only applicable when there is an adjacent development project planned. The Street Vacation Policies state a preference for retaining right-of-way in neighborhood residential zones. In addition to the basic street purpose of access and utilities, streets in residential areas provide for things like open space, consistency in the development pattern, natural drainage, wildlife corridors and other things. For more information, please visit this City website.
