  7-200800533  REPORT, dated 5/21/2008, submitted by Milton Dohoney, Jr., City

               Manager, on a motion, dated 4/22/2008 submitted by

               Councilmembers Roxanne Qualls and Chris Bortz, We move that the

               administration draft a policy to preserve access to the public

               rights-of-way, including alleys.  The policy should not permit

               the sale of any right-of-way unless there is a reverter clause

               that gives the City the option to regain ownership, or the

               right-of-way is physically irrelevant, such as a paper street.
