The easement was originally platted in The Wilds 4th Addition. Wensmann 1st Addition was platted in 2000. This existing 10' wide easement was not vacated prior to the final plat approval, so the easement encroaches into the buildable area of the new lots. The vacation of this easement is necessary to build on the affected lots. The necessary drainage and utility easements for the new lots were dedicated in the final plat of Wensmann 1 sl Addition. Current Circumstances: The Planning Commission reviewed this vacation request on March 26, 2001. The Planning Commission recommended approval of the proposed vacation. The Issues: Minnesota Statutes 412.851 allows the Council to vacate easements or right-of-way by resolution. The statute states, "no such vacation shall be made unless it appears to be in the public interest to do so." The Comprehensive Plan does not specifically discuss utility easements, other than as a function of ensuring access to public utilities. The vacation of this easement is not inconsistent with any specific goal or objective of the Comprehensive Plan. The necessary easements were included in Wensmann }"I Addition. There is no public need for this 10' easement. Vacation of the easement will allow construction on the new lots. Conclusion: The Planning Commission and the staff recommend approval of the easement vacation. 1:\0] files\O] vacations\O 1-0 13\0] -OJ 3 cc report. doc Page I 16200 Eagle Creek Ave. S.E., Prior Lake, Minnesota 55372-1714 / Ph.
