6 ATTACHMENT TO APPLCATON FOR ABANDONMENT OF ALLEY ADJONNG MAP AND PARCEL NUMBERS ; ; This request is to abandon portions of an unused alley running north and south between Broadway Street and Tennessee Avenue on St. Simons sland. The portion of the alley which is the subject of this application is now wild and overgrown with yards extended into a portion of the alley to the south and a portion of the alley already officially abandoned behind the property immediately to the north (315 Broadway Street). Hence the alley is inaccessible and has apparently never been used to provide governmental or utility services. The alley in its present state is a nuisance and harbors wild life which is an incompatible use for the adjoining homeowners. The proposed future use would be to add the 9 1/4 feet (representing 1/2 of the width of the alley) to each adjoining property owners yard. The square footage to be added to 311 and 313 Broadway Street would be square feet each. The amount of square footing to be added to 428 Tennessee A venue would be approximately The subdivisions involved are St. Simons Heights and Forest Park.
