Therefore, the Real Estate Division recommends the Board approve Alternative No. 1, and authorize the Chairman to execute the Notice of Adoption of a Resolution, and the Resolution to vacate the portion of easement, and the attached executed License Grant; and further instruct the

Clerk of the Circuit Court to record the attached executed License Grant of Lot 1860, Regency Park Unit Twelve.
