ning Commission recommends approval of the vacation subject to 3 conditions:

the value of the proposed vacation property pursuant to R.C.W. 36.87.120:
(2) The vacation line shall be moved to the north half of the east line of
Block 6, the south half of the west line of Block 6, and the north half of
the west line of Block 7, and (3) A twenty foot width shall be added on
the west side of 1st Street, creating a sixty foot right-of-way. Commission-
er Mercer moved to allow the vacation as recommended by the Planning Commis-
sion with the exclusion of condition number 1. Commissioner Brown seconded
the motion. Unanimous.
