The properties are located along the western shores of Upper Prior Lake, north of County State Aid Highway 12. Hi StOry Much of the right of way for the public street, Northwood Road and Butternut, was platted with the Northwood plat in 1911. In addition roadway easements were granted in 1977. As indicated by the attached survey, the paved roadway of Northwood road does not follow the platted right-of-way alignment in this area. Utility lines, both public and private are located in proximity to this road- way corridor. CenterPoint Energy has identified a concern in regards to the location of the gas line within the platted right-of-way, however, they do indicate that the granting of an easement in place of the current road right-of-way for their gas main line would alleviate their concern. A condition of approval has been attached to City Staff's recommendations requiring that an easement be granted by the property owners which would be sufficient for the maintenance of the CenterPoint Energy gas main. Current Circumstances As required by State Statute 462.356 Subd.2, the Planning Commission is re- quired to make a recommendation to the City Council regarding the disposal or acquisition of public lands as it relates to compliance with the Comprehensive Plan. Upon proper notification, State Statute 412.851 allows the Council to vacate right- of-way by resolution. The statute also states "no such vacation shall be made unless it appears to be in the public interest to do so. " ISSUES: The Planning Commission must make two determinations. Does the vacation of the existing right-of-way comply with the Comprehensive Plan and is there a pub- lic need or anticipated future need for the dedicated property? Comprehensive Plan Review One of the goals of the Comprehensive Plan is to "provide well-maintained streets, water distributions systems, sewage systems, and other municipal servi ces". The portion of the public right of way area proposed to be vacated in this case is not needed to provide adequate street access or utility service to the res- idential neighborhood. The roadway as travelled is not located within this platted right of way. Public Need The result of the excessive area of right-of-way width is the location of Northwood Road further west of the platted right-of-way. This curvature of the existing road- way is a more suitable location for the roadway corridor that the sharper curvature of the platted right-of-way, therefore the City has no plans to relocate the existing Northwood Road with the originally platted right-of-way. The portion of the public right of way area proposed to be vacated is not needed to provide street access or utility service to the residential neighborhood contingent upon the granting of an easement for the existing gas main service line. Conclusion The portion of the public right of way requesting to be vacated is not needed to facilitate access or utility services to the residential neighborhood contingent upon the granting of an easement for the existing gas main service line. As a result City Staff recommends approval of the vacation of the requested portion of right of way with the following conditions: • The property owners shall grant an easement which would be sufficient for the maintenance of the CenterPoint Energy gas main. • The approval resolution vacating the public right of way shall be rec- orded at the Scott County Recorder's Office within 60 days of City Coun- cil approval. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Recommend the City Council approve the proposed vacation as presented or with changes recommended by the Planning Commission. 2. Continue the discussion to a date and time certain to allow the City Staff to provide additional information specifically requested by the Planning Com- mission. 3. Based upon expressed findings of fact, recommend the City Council deny part or all of the applications based upon inconsistency of the proposal with specific regulations of the Zoning and Subdivision Ordinances and/or spe- cific policies of the Comprehensive Plan. RECOMMENDED City Staff recommends Alternative #1. A motion and second to recommend the MOTION: City Council approve the vacation as requested. EXHIBITS: 1. Location Map 2.
