When the Commission shall deem it advisable to vacate a street or alley or any part thereof, the Commission shall by resolution so declare and in the same resolution shall appoint a time, not less than four weeks thereafter, when the Commission shall meet and hear objections to the vacation. Notice of the meeting, including a copy of the resolution, shall be published once not less than two weeks before the time appointed for the meeting in a newspaper of general circulation in the city. Notice of the meeting shall also be served personally or by mail at least seven days prior to the day of the meeting upon property owners of record, as listed in the records at City Hall, for all property which abuts the portion of the street or alley to be vacated. Failure of a property owner to receive such notice shall not invalidate the vacation proceedings. Vacated portions of streets and alleys shall be eliminated from the street plan map. A certified copy of the resolution of vacation adopted by the City Commission shall be recorded with the Register of Deeds and sent to the State Treasurer as required by state law.
