These lots are covered n their entirety by <br /> a drainage and utility easement which was dedicated to the City with the original platting of <br /> Edgewood Square. The Council denied the request to vacate the drainage and utility easement <br /> citing the present and future public benefit of flood control, buffer to the wetland and stormwater <br /> drainage served by these two lots. <br /> Discussion: <br /> While the request to vacate the drainage and utility easement made the request for a wetland <br /> buffer permit a moot point, no formal action was taken on the request. The attached resolution <br /> makes clear that the requested alteration permit has also been denied. <br /> Recommendation: <br /> Approve Resolution 5354, a resolution denying a request for a wetland alteration permit on Lots <br /> 17 and 18, Block 1, Edgewood Square. <br /> James Ericson, Planning Associate <br /> N:\DATA\GROUPS\COMDE V\DE VCASES\56 5-99\COUNCIL.RPT <br />
