SECONDED BY:
the City of Prior Lake entered into a purchase agreement to acquire
property from the Watzl family for park purposes, and;
David and Dorothy Watzl residing at 15608 Red Oaks Lane, S. E.
have requested that the City restrict access through a trail on City
property adjacent to their homestead, and;
the City of Prior Lake is required to provide handicapped, emergency
and maintenance access to all of its public facilities, and;
the City of Prior Lake must consider its obligations to all citizens as
well as the rights of the Watzls; and
the present City council desires to set forth its current policy by this
Resolution rather than by recorded covenant in order to give future
City Council's latitude for future planning in the use of the park facility.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF PRIOR LAKE,
MINNESOTA, that the City does hereby restrict the access to Lakefront Park from Red
Oaks Lane in accordance with the following:
1. Access is explicitly restricted for snowmobiles, all terrain vehicles,
motorcycles, and vehicles unless such access is by a handicapped
person, emergency vehicles or maintenance vehicles or a vehicle
operated by or on behalf of a property owner whose property has been
granted access to the lake through this property, or other temporary uses
as determined by the City Manager.
2. The access shall remain public and open to walkers, joggers, bikers, in
line skaters and the like.
3. The City shall retain and maintain the existing barriers and gate on this
access.
4. The property owner shall not in any way inhibit the appropriate use of the
access by any party.
