In re Cartway Petition <br />)uly 9, 2012 <br />Page 9oF9 <br />private improvement that 15 being converted to public use. Accordingly, the value of that <br />private improvement must be included in the responsibility of the Petitioner to construct. <br />Given that cartways are now only to be created as public roads maintained by the <br />City, the provisions of Minn. Stat. 43537, subd. 2 regarding allocation of maintenance costs <br />among the private property owners has been rendered archaic and of no affect. If the City <br />reverses its March 26, 2012 finding and determines that converting this private road to public <br />is in the public's interest, the City of Lino Lakes is to maintain the roadway. Minn. Stat. 5 <br />435.37. <br />VII. Conclusion <br />Based on the foregoing, the Association respectfully requests that the City of Lino <br />Lakes deny the Petitioned-for cartway on the basis that the property has reasonable access. <br />If the City of Lino Lakes decides to grant the cartway petition for a public road, the <br />Association requests that the City of Uno Lakes require a bond from the Petitioner in an <br />amount no less than $747.987.25. Then, only after the bond has been provided by the <br />Petitioner, the City proceed with the appraisals and negotiation prior to further eminent <br />domain proceedings. <br />Very truly yours, <br />JOHNSON/TURNER P.A. <br />David Snyder <br />Enclosures <br />
