LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL, XJAL MEETING MAY 24, 1995 2
Council member Johnston indicated she hated being forced into a position of solving
another City's street problem that really should not concern the City of Lake Elmo in
any way along our borders. Being backed into the corner, this seems the least
damaging way to try to work it out.
M/S/ Conlin/Johnston - to amend the motion to include contingent upon Oakdale
agreeing to use that easement alone from Lake Elmo land
Councilman Hunt would like to take the exclusive easement and then go and talk to
Oakdale and see what we can work out to mitigate the problems to Lake Elmo.
Mayor John didn't think you can vote in one direction contingent on a decision which
has not yet been communicated to us from Oakdale. He suggested, we take the
easement, as is, and approach the city of Oakdale. Oakdale could use that easement
to produce their plans for the route out of Helmo which does not encroach on the.
properties of the northwestern portion of Lake Elmo Heights 3rd Addition. If that route
shows that it does, then we would have to resist it.
M/S/P Conlin/Johnston - to withdraw contingency. (Motion passed 5- 0).
Councilman DeLapp suggested added Findings of Fact to interpret why the Council is
taking this action because we are not seeing any benefit to the City of Lake Elmo by
either of these possibilities.
M/S/P Conlint/Johnston - that the City of lake Elmo accepts the original right-of-way
easement (west side of Lot 10 & NW corner of Lot 9) presented by Royal Oaks on the
Final Plat of Lake Elmo Heights 3rd Addition based on the following Findings: (Motion
passed 5-0).
1 The exit from Helmo has been in Oakdale's Comp Plan for some time even though it
00isagrees with Lake Elmo's long range plans.
2. The Washington County Public works Dept. require a right-of-way on the centerline
of Idea[ for exiting Helmo Avenue at Stillwater Blvd.
3. Acceptance of this easement will enable Lake Elmo to minimize the impact or
intrusion on Lake Elmo land and permit the City of Lake Elmo to remain a participant in
the design and construction process of any road,
4. The easement at the NW corner of Lot 9 and West side of Lot 10 was specifically
requested by the City of Oakdale to meet their needs for exiting an extended Helmo,
Avenue at Stillwater Blvd. -
