City Council Meeting <br /> Woods Vacation <br /> October 28,2002 <br /> ANALYSIS <br /> The existing ponding easement at 73 Lilac Street (Lot 11,Block 2, Sunset Oaks)covers <br /> portions of the eastern part of the property and extends onto the neighboring property to <br /> the east. In reviewing documents from the time the Sunset Oaks subdivision was <br /> constructed(1970's),it appears that the ponding easement area was designated in <br /> anticipation of a pond being constructed or needed. Thirty years later,such a pond has <br /> never materialized. <br /> City engineer Jim Studenski has reviewed the site and found no need for the ponding <br /> easement area,as there is no drainage to the area and the land is relatively level In <br /> addition, a portion of the existing septic system of the home is sited in the easement area, <br /> which would thus make it impractical for ponding purposes. <br /> CONCLUSION <br /> As the ponding easement area does not appear to be necessary for drainage purposes, <br /> staff would recommend its vacation. <br /> OPTIONS <br /> 1 ) Approve Ordinance No. 12-02,vacating the easement. <br /> 2.) Deny Ordinance No. 12-02. <br /> 3.) Return to staff with direction. <br /> RECOMMEENDATION <br /> Option#1. <br />
