The right-of-way vacation petition shall be considered abandoned if the vacation conditions have not been met, including payment of compensation, within the time period identified in the ordinance, or if no such time period is identified, within 180 days of approval of the ordinance. The city may extend this deadline if they determine the petitioner has made a good faith effort to meet the conditions.

In the event that the city council, at the conclusion of the public hearing thereon, denies the requested right-of-way vacation petition, or that such vacation proceedings should be abandoned by the petitioner, the petitioner shall be relieved from the obligation to fulfill conditions of the ordinance. The city shall notify the interested city departments if a vacation proceeding is abandoned by the petitioner prior to the city council hearing on the petition. If a vacation petition is disapproved by the city council or abandoned by the petitioner after the council hearing, such notification shall be given by the city clerk. (Ord. 6085 § 1, 2007; Ord. 5212 § 1 (Exh. G), 1999; 1957 code § 8.24.090.)
