COUNCIL MINUTES April 11, 2005 APPROVED •143 Councilmember Carlson asked for clarification on why Circle Pines wishes to make this purchase, 144 and if it is the purchase of an easement or an outright land purchase. She also asked if this would 145 make the lots buildable. 146 147 City Planner Smyser advised Circle Pines hopes to build a new police station, and would require a 148 portion of the land for the parking lot. He stated they would need to purchase a small piece of land 149 from another property owner and get a vacation of easement over the right-of-way, and this registered 150 land survey will make it easier for them to do so. He indicated the lots would not become buildable, 151 as the County would have to vacate the easements for that to happen, and that is not done with a 152 registered land survey. He explained the description of the easements has gotten very long, and this 153 facilitates identifying those easements. 154 155 City Planner Smyser explained the property owners involved have been talking to the City of Circle 156 Pines for a long time, and have an agreement with Circle Pines to sell them the necessary piece of 157 land. He noted this does not change ownership in any way. 158 159 Councilmember Dahl moved to adopt Resolution No. 05-47 approving a registered land survey 160 requested by the City of Circle Pines.
