AN ORDINANCE RELATING TO CLOSING A PORTION OF CUMBERLAND AVENUE THAT RUNS BEHIND THE BOSWELL STUDENT CENTER AND UNDERNEATH THE VIADUCT AND DEAD ENDS AT THE VIADUCT.

WHEREAS, this portion of street is one way and primarily leads into the parking lot of the Student Center and is a very low lying area that has poor drainage and floods quite often;

WHEREAS, the roadway is broken apart and the ditching is not handling the storm water run off;

WHEREAS, the University of the Cumberlands would like to raise the grade of the street, install new storm drainage and let the street dead end into the parking lot at the Viaduct;

WHEREAS, the University at its cost would widen the street to be two way from 9th to the parking lot at the Viaduct and would rebuild the City’s sanitary sewer line and storm drainage;

WHEREAS, this would have no impact on the 8th Street side of the Viaduct but that the University would insure that the new storm drainage would be properly tied in and would not over tax the City’s system on down the line toward 8th Street and a storm detention system be installed to control the run off as the University did on Main Street at the Harth Hall site;

WHEREAS, the University owns the property on both sides of the street in this area, there would be no impact to any private residences;

WHEREAS, the University would in the future build sidewalks on this new two way street from 9th to the Viaduct giving the City of Williamsburg a newly built street and a storm drainage control system in this area; and

WHEREAS, this would benefit both the University of the Cumberlands and the City of Williamsburg, the City Council desires to accept this request.
