CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT Prior Lake, Minnesota 55372 DATE: December 6, 2004 AGENDA#: 5G PREPARED BY: Makenzie McCormick, Public Works Coordinator REVIEWED BY: Bud Osmundson, Director oCPublic Works SUBJECT: DISCUSSION: FINANCIAL IMPACT: A gPnrll:l ;n;t;l:ltp U!lf'- 1 '_11& rlnr CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION INITIATING THE VACATION OF AN EASEMENT ON THE MADER'S PROPERTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE 2003-04 LIFT STATION IMPROVEMENT PROJECT HISTORY: The 2003-2004 lift station improvement project is nearly complete. The project included updating seven (7) lift stations around the city. The Sycamore lift station, which is mostly on Wes and Charlotte Mader's property, was one of the lift stations rehabilitated. T he purpose 0 f t his agenda item is to consider a resolution initiating the vacation of an existing easement which no longer serves a public purpose and should be vacated by the City. CURRENT CIRCUMSTANCES: The purpose of the lift station rehabilitation is to provide dependable operation of each lift station to the houses it serves. To complete the updates to the Sycamore lift station, it was necessary to obtain new utility easements for the realignment of the equipment. Also due to the realignment, the City is able to vacate an existing easement along the Mader's property which is no longer required. The proposed vacation is shown on the attached drawing. The City Attorney, Public Works Director and Public Works Coordinator have met with the Mader's several times over the last year to describe the project and its parameters. The Mader's have been very cooperative with the design process and construction. Staff recommends the City vacate the existing easement on the Mader's property as described on the attached sheet. ISSUES: With the lift station project nearly completed, the old easement is no longer needed by the city, so staff recommends that the City Council initiate the process of vacating the existing easement along the Mader's property. State Statutes require that a public hearing be held after proper notification to the adjacent properties. We recommend that a public hearing be scheduled for January 3rd, 2005. Any fiscal impacts of this agreement are already contemplated in the lift station rehabili tation proj ect. www.cityofpriorlake.com Phone 952.440.9675 / Fax 952.440.9678 ALTERNATIVES: RECOMMENDED MOTION: ACTION REQUIRED: REVIEWED BY: Agenda initiate vac 12-04.doc The alternatives for the City Council to consider are as follows: 1.
