S2023001 – Biblow Property Easement Abandonment      
 
Supervisor District:

Applicant/Owner:  
Jim Biblow  
 
Request: 
A Resolution to redelineate a public utility easement on Lot 
2728 of Leisure World Plat 26 
 
Site Location: 
APN 141-56-635 @ 2728 Leisure World, Mesa, AZ 85206 
 
Site Size: 
Approximately 0.17 acres 
 
County Island Status: 
N/A 
Additional 
Comments: 
The subject parcel is located within Leisure World Plat 26 
which was platted in 1987 and subsequently developed in the 
late 1980s and early 1990s. Lot 2728 is located at a street 
corner.  There is an extant 14’ public utility easement (PUE) 
extending from the south of the parcel towards the front at 
the north before proceeding westward. In 2002, a prior owner 
of the parcel built an addition which encroached 5’6” 
lengthwise and 43.85’ widthwise into the easement with the 
benefit of a permit issued by Maricopa County under 
B200204590. The addition is 8’5” from the east parcel line. The 
current owner applied for permit B202213585 to add a 
garage door to this addition.  He was advised the building 
was encroaching into the easement. Legal Nonconforming 
status of this addition encroachment was recognized under 
LU20220064. The proposal is to re-delineate the PUE along the 
east lot line of Lot 2728 to negate building encroachment. 
Documents provided to staff indicate that there are no 
objections to re-delineation from any of the utility providers 
associated with the easement.
