Office of: <br />JOEL R. HANSON, Administrator <br />515 Little Canada Road <br />Little Canada, MN 55117 <br />612- 484 -2177 <br />FAX: 612-484 -4538 <br />CITY OF LITTLE CANADA <br />RAMSEY COUNTY, MINNESOTA <br />MEMORANDUM <br />TO: Mayor Fahey and Members of the City Council <br />FROM: Joel Hanson, City Administrator <br />DATE: May 18, 1990 <br />RE: Centre Place Easements <br />MAYOR <br />Michael Fahey <br />COUNCIL <br />Beverly Scelza <br />Bill Blesener <br />Pick CoBove <br />Jim Levalle <br />Agreements have been reached with some of the property owners regarding <br />their willingness to provide the City with temporary construction <br />easements for the Centre Place improvement project. However, it does <br />appear necessary that we will need to complete condemnation actions for <br />some of the permanent easements. The condemnation process was commenced <br />by the City Attorney's office some time ago and we will be in possession <br />of the property no later than June 6, 1990. To continue with that <br />process, the City Council will need to approve the appraised values <br />established for these easements. An appraisal has been conducted on those <br />permanent easements where we anticipate the need to complete the <br />condemnation process. Tom Sweeney will present a resolution establishing <br />those values at Wednesday's meeting. <br />We have also obtained some of the needed temporary easements. However, <br />there are a couple of issues left to be addressed regarding compensation <br />for trees and soil removed from some of the properties. We would hope to <br />have a recommendation regarding the disposition of these matters available <br />for Wednesday night's meeting. <br />It should also be noted that some of the temporary easements have already <br />been signed and donated to the City. However, it is my feeling that if we <br />pay for temporary easements on some of the properties fronting <br />County Road C, we should provide equal compensation to all properties due <br />to the issues of consistency and fairness. It is my opinion that we are <br />looking at nominal amounts for the acquisition of these easements. <br />Further information regarding this matter will be available for <br />Wednesday's meeting. <br />JRH:kpv <br />PAGE 36 <br />
