Right Of Way Engineering (ROWE) Street Vacations

The Orange County Board of Supervisors may vacate a street, highway or public service easement pursuant to the California Streets and Highways Code Section 8335 by adopting a resolution of vacation. After the resolution is recorded, the street, highway or public service easement no longer constitutes a street, highway or public service easement. To request a vacation of a street, highway or public service easement, send a letter to Right of Way Engineering outlining your proposal along with a non-refundable check made out to the County of Orange for $150. Right of Way Engineering will process the vacation and you will be billed monthly on a time and materials basis.
