This site is located at 5832 Industrial Lane SE. Port City Bakery is purchasing this property, which is currently occupied by Triple Play (Port City primarily makes pizza dough for pizza companies). History In May of 2008, the City of Prior Lake was issued an access easement for the purpose of a City truck turn-around in the parking lot of 5832 Industrial Lane. This was due to the fact that a full cul-de-sac had not yet been constructed at the end of Industrial Lane, and the City street maintenance vehicles may have required a turn-around to provide snow removal services. The property owner would like to consider future expansion of the building at this location, and to do so, the access easement should be vacated. Current Circumstances On April 18, the Planning Commission recommended approval of the vacation request related to compliance with the Comprehensive Plan. Conclusion Upon proper notification, State Statute 412.851 allows the Council to vacate easements and 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 City Council must make two determinations. Does the vacation of the existing easement comply with the Comprehensive Plan, and is there a public need or anticipated future need for the dedicated property? FINANCIAL IMPACT: 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 services”. The City Public Works Department has indicated that this easement is not utilized or necessary to ensure well-maintained street in the area. City trucks can turn at the end of Industrial Lane without going into the private property parking lot to do so. Public Need/Interest No public need will be present to maintain this access easement since it has not be used by the City, and Industrial Lane will eventually be continued to the northeast with future development. The vacation of this access easement will allow potential expansion of a new business in Deerfield, which will improve the overall economic development of the City. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Motion and a second to approve a resolution approving the vacation of an access easement located within Deerfield Industrial Park 6th Addition. 2. Motion and a second to table action to a date and time certain to allow the staff to provide additional information specifically requested by the City Council. 3. Motion and a second to deny part or all of the application based upon inconsistency of the proposal with specific regulations of Zoning and Subdivision Ordinances and/or specific policies of the Comprehensive Plan.
