On March 24, 2025, the Des Moines City Council set a hearing to approve the conveyance of a vacated alley right-of-way adjoining 1014 Virginia Avenue. Home Opportunities Made Easy, Inc. (H.O.M.E., Inc.) and Wesley A. Kirscher would purchase the property for a combined total of $100.00 ($75.00 and $25.00 respectively) to expand their adjoining properties' side yards, subject to utility easement reservations. The City determined there is no known current or future public need for the property and the sale would not inconvenience city operations.

The City of Knoxville received a proposal from Eric Forrestall to close an unnamed, unimproved alley located between Wilson Avenue and Houston Street in Council District 6 to facilitate construction of a new home on his property. The staff recommendation approves the closure, with the condition that all existing easements for drainage and utilities be retained, noting that closure would not adversely affect surrounding properties since all abutting owners have legal street access and signed in agreement with the request. Upon approval, the right-of-way would be divided equally among abutting property owners through quit claim deeds, with the applicant able to acquire additional portions only through written, notarized agreements from neighboring property owners.
