Hanson <br /> www. ci.little-canada. mn. us <br /> MEMORANDUM <br /> TO: David Himmelbach <br /> FROM: Joel Hanson, City Administrator <br /> DATE: Apri113, 2010 <br /> RE: Proposed Terms of Easement Acquisition <br /> Pursuant to your request, this memo will document the terms and conditions proposed by me to you <br /> relative to the City's acquisition of a utility easement impacting your property. Please understand that <br /> this document is subject to the approval of the City Council. I anticipate that approval will be granted at <br /> tonight's Council Meeting. Ideally, it would be nice to know prior to or at the meeting if these proposed <br /> terms are acceptable to you. The terms are as follows: <br /> ? You will dedicate a 50-foot utility easement to the City in the area approximated on the attached <br /> diagram. The utility easement cannot be used to consriuct a streethoad without acquiring <br /> additional rights from you. The City anticipates the road right-of--way will ultimately be <br /> dedicated by you (or the property owner at the time) when the property is developed pursuant to <br /> the City's subdivision ordinances. As T have stated to you on numerous occasions, the City is <br /> not interested in constructing a road that does not benefit abutting property. <br /> ? The amount of compensation paid will be as follows: <br /> Easement-9, 750 Sq. Ft. @ $1.275/sq. ft. = 12,400 <br /> Appraisal Allowance = 2,500 <br /> Eminent Domain Avoidance = 15,000 <br /> Total Compensation = 29 00 <br /> ? You will be specially assessed for benefits received resulting from the construction of the <br /> sanitary sewer line across your property. The estimated assessment to youl• property is based on <br /> a cost per lot of $13,027 multiplied by an estimated three (3) lots totaling $39,081. The exact <br /> amount of the assessment will be determined after the project is bid and constructed. <br /> ? The special assessments will be deferred until such time as the benefitted property is developed. <br /> ? Interest will accrue on the deferred assessments. The rate of interest for acciual purposes is <br /> expected to be between 4.5% and 5.0 percent. Interest is not compounded. <br /> ? No water main will be installed at this time. Should it be deemed necessary to do so in the <br /> future, this easement would permit that. However, the City does not feel water main needs to be <br /> installed until your and/or the Battista property are developed. A primary reason is water main <br /> <br />
