HomeMy WebLinkAbout8A - Water Main Easement, Lot 94, Northwood MEETING DATE: AGENDA #: PREPARED BY: AGENDA ITEM: CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT JANUARY 19, 1999 8A JENNITOVAR,PLANNER GREG ILKKA, CITY ENGINEER PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION 99-XX APPROVING THE VACATION OF A DEDICATED WATER MAIN EASEMENT LOCATED ON LOT 94, NORTHWOOD DISCUSSION: History: This petition is part of the City's effort to clear-up questionable easements within the City. As the situation exists, the City has a water main easement and separate sanitary sewer easement on Lot 94, Northwood. The existing water main is located within the water main easement, however, it is not centered in the easement. This is a problem for the City, since we would have to work within the easement should the line need repair or replacement. It would be very difficult to work on the water main and remain in the existing easement. Additionally, the property owner intends to construct a garage addition. A permit has been issued with the proposed garage located on a portion of the existing water main easement. The permit was issued with the intent of the City to correct the easement situation on the lot. Mr. Nelson is willing to grant the City the proper easement (IS foot centered over the existing water main) at no cost to the city, as part of this vacation. After such dedication, the proposed garage will not be located on any easement. Current Circumstances: The Planning Commission reviewed this vacation request on December 15, 1998. The Planning Commission adopted Resolution 98-035PC approving proposed vacation with the condition a new easement be granted. The Planning Commission is of the opinion there is no public need for the incorrect easement, as the proper easement will be granted and the vacation is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The applicant concurred with the staff report and recommendation of the Planning Commission. 162b't)sg~g~'gSC~~~~-At~\?~~~~'Pi-?gr Lake, Minnesota 55372-1714 / Ph. (612) 447-4230 / Fa!(~H) 447-4245 AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER ALTERNATIVES: RECOMMENDED MOTION: REVIEWED BY: The Issues: Minnesota Statutes 412.851 allows the Council to vacate easements or right-of-way by resolution. The statute states that "no such vacation shall be made unless it appears to be in the public interest to do so ". -, The vacation of the existing water main easement and granting of the proper water main easement will be in the public interest. Any future maintenance on this portion of the water main should be accessed within the proposed easement. Hence, future maintenance of the pipe should not disturb the owners' property outside of the easement resulting in possible financial costs to the City and public. Conclusion: The proposed vacation is in the best public interest with the condition the proper easement be granted. The City Council has three alternatives: 1. Adopt Resolution 99-XX approving the vacation as requested. 2. Deny Resolution 99-XX. 3. Defer this item and provide staff with specific direction. Staff recommends Alternative #1. A motion and second to approve Resolution 99-XX approving the vacation of the water main easement located on Lot 94, Northwood, with the specific condition that a 15 foot easement be granted as stated in the resolution. 1:\98files\98vac\98-158\98158cc.doc Page 2 RESOLUTION 99-XX REQUEST TO VACATE A WATER MAIN EASEMENT LOCATED ON LOT 94, MOTION BY: SECOND BY: WHEREAS, a petition for the vacation of a water main easement has been duly presented to the City of Prior Lake, signed by the owners of the property containing the described easement in Exhibit A and situated in the City of Prior Lake, Scott County; and WHEREAS, notice of the hearing on said petition has been duly published and posted in accordance with the applicable Minnesota Statutes, and WHEREAS, a Public Hearing was held on said petition on Tuesday, January 19, 1999, at 7:30 p.m. in the Council Chambers at the Prior Lake Fire Station #1; and WHEREAS, the City Council then proceeded to hear all persons interested in said petition and persons interested were afforded the opportunity to present their views and objections to the granting of said petition; and WHEREAS, the City Council of Prior Lake has determined that the vacation of said water main easement would be in the public interest.
