Easement MEETING DATE: AGENDA #: PREPARED BY: REVIEWED BY: AGENDA ITEM: DISCUSSION: CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT JUNE 3, 2002 7A JANE RANSIER, PLANNING COORDINATOR DON RYE, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION VACATING THE DRAINAGE AND UTILITY EASEMENT LOCATED ON LOTS 21-23, BLOCK 2, WENSMANN 1 ST ADDITION (Case File #02-049) History: Wensmann Realty, Inc. has filed an application to vacate the 5' wide drainage and utility easements located on the common lot line between Lots 21 and 22, Block 2, Wensmann 151 Addition, and on the common lot line between Lots 22 and 23, Block 2, Wensmann 151 Addition. The applicant is proposing to create two larger lots out of the existing three lots, and to dedicate a new easement on the common lot line. The existing easement must be vacated in order to allow construction of new houses on the two lots. Wensmann 151 Addition was originally platted in 2000. As is the norm, drainage and utility easements were dedicated on the common lot lines. The developer has since received a request to combine these three lots into two for the construction of two, larger single family dwellings. In order to facilitate this construction, the drainage and utility easement on the common lot lines must be vacated. Current Circumstances: The Planning Commission reviewed this vacation request on May 28, 2002. The Planning Commission recommended approval of the proposed vacation, subject to the condition that the documents recording the new easements be recorded prior to recording the resolution vacating the easement. 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. 1:\02fi1es\02vacations\02-049 wensmann 1 \02-049 cc report. doc Page 1 16200 Eagle Creek Ave. S.E., Prior Lake, Minnesota 55372-1714 / Ph. (952) 447-4230 / Fax (952) 447-4245 AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER i AL TERNA TIVES: RECOMMENDED MOTION: REVIEWED BY: The vacation of this easement is not inconsistent with any specific goal or objective of the Comprehensive Plan. There is no need for the retention of the existing easements once the lots are combined and the new easement is dedicated. rnnr/m:inn' The Plmming Commission and staff therefore recommend approval of this request, subject to the condition that the documents dedicating the new easement be recorded prior to recording the resolution vacating the existing easements. The City Council has three alternatives: 1. Adopt a Resolution approving the vacation. 2. Direct staff to prepare a resolution denying the vacation. 3. Defer this item and provide staff with specific direction. The Planning Commission and staff recommend Alternative #1. A motion and second to adopt a Resolution approving the vacation of the easement subject to the listed condition is required. 1:\02fi1es\02vacations\02-049 wensmann 1 \02-049 cc report. doc Page 2 'if RESOLUTION 02-~ RESOLUTION PROVIDING FOR THE VACATION OF THE DRAINAGE AND UTILITY EASEMENT LOCATED ON LOTS 21-23, BLOCK 2, WENSMANN 1 ST ADDITION MOTION BY: Jc.
