Prior Lake, MN 55372-1714 MEETING DATE: AGENDA #: PREPARED BY: MARCH 15, 2004 7A JANE KANSIER, PLANNING COORDINATOR AGENDA ITEM: PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION VACATING A PORTION OF THE RIGHT-OF- WAY FOR WILDS DRIVE AND THE DRAINAGE AND UTILITY EASEMENTS LOCATED ON OUTLOTS I & J, THE WILDS AND ON LOT 14, BLOCK 2, AND OUTLOT B, THE WILDS NORTH (Case File #04-011) DISCUSSION: History: On November 3,2003, the City Council approved the preliminary plat known as Wensmann 4th Addition. This preliminary plat included the lots previously platted as Outlots I and J, The Wilds, and as Lot 14, Block 2, and Outlot B, The Wilds North. The plat also reconfigures the segment of Wilds Drive located between Wilds Parkway and Cougar Path as originally platted in The Wilds and The Wilds North. Wensmann Homes has now filed an application for a final plat for Wensmann 4th Addition. In order to reconfigure the lots and the street, the existing right-of-way, drainage and utility easements must be vacated. New easements and right-of-way will be dedicated in the final plat. Current Circumstances: The Planning Commission reviewed this vacation request on March 8, 2004. The Planning Commission recommended approval of the proposed vacation, subject to the condition that the resolution vacating the easement be recorded with the final plat. 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." One of the goals of the Comprehensive Plan is to "plan for access to and movement of people, goods and services." The vacation of the existing right-of-way for Wilds Lane will further this goal. New right-of-way for the realignment of the street will be dedicated as part of the final plat. 1:\04 files\04 vacations\wensmann 4th\cc report. doc 'ty f .

The vacation of the easements is not inconsistent with any specific goal or objective of the Comprehensive Plan. The new plat will dedicate necessary easements for this area Conclusion: The Planning Commission and the staff recommend approval of the requested vacation. 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 staffwith specific direction. The Planning Commission and staff recommend Alternative # 1. A motion and second to adopt a Resolution approving the vacation of the right-of-way and easements subject to the listed condition is required.
