§ 755.41.
When lands lying within the limits of a municipal corporation have been dedicated
to or for the use of the public for parks or park lands, and where such lands have
remained unimproved and unused by the public for a period of twenty-one years and
there appears to be little or no possibility that such lands will be improved and
used by the public, the legislative authority of a municipal corporation in which
said lands are located may, by ordinance, declare such parks or park lands vacated
upon the petition of a majority of the abutting freeholders. No such parks or park lands shall be vacated unless notice of the pendency and prayer
of the petition is given, in a newspaper of general circulation in the municipal corporation
in which such lands are situated for three consecutive weeks, or as provided in section 7.16 of the Revised Code , preceding action on such petition. No such lands shall be vacated prior to a public hearing had thereon.
