L 1RIHG fr. B OCIfTCS <br />Memo <br />TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members <br />FROM: Lee Elfering, City Engineer <br />DATE: January 12, 2012 <br />RE: Utility Easement Dedication & Vacation <br />St. Jude Medical Site <br />Background <br />As Council is aware, St. Jude Medical recently requested approval to construct a parking <br />structure on their site south of County Road 82 just east of the Capital View School. <br />The construction of the parking structure required the relocation of the City watermain <br />within the site. The plans were reviewed and approved by the City contingent on the <br />dedication of a new utility easement over the new watermain alignment. In conjunction <br />with the dedication of the new easement, the City would vacate the existing easement <br />over the old watermain alignment that was no longer needed. <br />Summary and Recommendation <br />The attached information illustrates and defines the new drainage and utility easement <br />area to be dedicated to the City and the portion of the old easement that is being <br />vacated. The new easement will allow maintenance of the public watermain through the <br />site and the old easement area is no longer needed. We would therefore recommend <br />approval of both the dedication and vacation. <br />If you have any questions or would like to discuss this matter please feel free to call me <br />at 763 - 780 -0450 Ext. 3. <br />10062 Flanders Court NE — Blaine, MN 55449 — Ph: (763) 780-0450 Fax (763) 780 -0452 <br />Memo-011212 -CC (Easement Swap) <br />2 <br />
