Vehicle usage of the alley is predominantly <br />to access the adjacent parking lot to the east, which is also owned by the applicant. The <br />segment of High Alley south of the area of request (i.e. between East Broadway Alley and East <br />lo Avenue) will continue to be open to vehicular use, which is essential to the Greyhound Bus <br />operations located to the southwest. Greyhound and City staffs have discussed the applicant's <br />request to confirm that the vacation of High Alley north of East Broadway Alley will not <br />interrupt the bus operations.
