OF Agenda Section: 11 _A REQUEST FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION Report Number: 95-1231c 11417S Report Date: 2-8-95 STAFF REPORT Council Action: fiEW El Special Order of Business CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE February 13, 1995 El Public Hearings ❑ Consent Agenda kl Council Business Item Description: Consideration of Ordinance No. 554 Vacating Publicly Dedicated Easements, Mounds View Business Park East, 2nd Addition Administrator's Review/Recommendation: - No comments to supplement this report - Comments attached. Explanation/Summary (attach-supplement-sheets-as-necessary.) -- -- --------- KMMARY; In the Fall of 1994, the City Council approved the plat known as MOUNDS VIEW BUSINESS PARK EAST 2ND ADDITION for Everest Development. This Plat included property that will eventually support the Building N addition to the Mounds View Business Park. The MVBP East 2nd Addition plat that was approved was a replat of properties included in two (2) previously approved Plats (Programmed Land First and Second Additions) . At the time those two plats were approved, certain easements were taken by the City to provide for utilities and drainage on the parcels. Since the MVBP East 2nd Addition plat is a reconfiguration of those original parcels, certain portions of those easements are no longer necessary. Because easements are "dedicated to the public forever" , these portions of unnecessary easements are required to be formally vacated as part of the replat. Please keep in mind that new utility and drainage easements were provided by Everest at the time of replat, so there is no net loss in available utility and drainage easements. I have attached Ordinance No. 554 which formally vacates the appropriate sections of the easements on the property which are no longer necessary. z l -- Paul Harrington, Comm ity Development Coordinator R.ECOMM_F.NDATION: Motion to waive the reading and formally introduce Ordinance No. 554 vacating certain publicly held easements.
