1.Ordinance: Alley Closure at Approximately 9 North Chicago St. (Madsen
Park)
The Council will set the date of Tuesday, July 1, 2025 at 7 p.m. to accept public comment
and consider adopting an ordinance that would indefinitely close a portion of City-owned
alley located at approximately 9 North Chicago Street (Madsen Park) running
north/south mid-block between 1000 West and Chicago Street. The proposed alley
closure is needed to consolidate all parcels that make up Madsen Park into one parcel to
facilitate park improvements that are being funded by the Parks, Trails, & Open Space
General Obligation Bond (GO Bond). This portion of the alley doesn’t provide access to
nearby residents to their properties or to the park. Located within Council District 2.
