First Reading (Introduction) of Ordinance 668, an Ordinance Vacating a <br />Sign Easement No Longer Serving a Public Purpose. <br />Planning Associate Ericson explained that in conjunction with the platting of the properties <br />associated with the Walgreens Planned Unit Development, a survey was done on the Midland <br />Videen land, which revealed two sign easement areas. One easement area is a perpetual <br />easement originally dedicated to Naegle for the siting of a billboard and is improved accordingly. <br />The second easement area, located at the northeast corner of Highway 10 and the old alignment <br />of Edgewood Drive, was dedicated to the owner of the Bel Rae Ballroom, who had used the <br />location for their Bel Rae Ballroom sign. When the City purchased the Bel Rae Ballroom, it also <br />acquired the rights to this easement area. The City is not currently using and has no future intent <br />to use this area for signage or for any other purpose. Because the easement overlaps the area <br />contemplated by the Walgreens PUD and because the area does not serve a public purpose, the <br />easement area should be vacated. Ordinance 668 is the document that would accomplish the <br />proposed vacation. <br />Planning Associate Ericson advised that a public hearing has been set for Monday, September <br />11, 2000 at 7:05 p.m., for the second reading and adoption of this ordinance. He recommended <br />approval the first reading and introduction of Ordinance 668. <br />MOTION/SECOND: Quick/Marty.

Second Reading and Adoption of Ordinance 669, an Ordinance Authorizing <br />the Disposal by Sale of Real Property Associated with the Walgreens PUD, <br />Planning Associate Ericson explained that this ordinance is the Charter-required mechanism by <br />which the City officially authorizes the transfer of land-the one-acre remnant parcel-to TOLD <br />Development Company in return for the City receiving approximately 8 acres of the Midland <br />Videen land. The City Council held a public hearing on August 14, 2000 and approved the first <br />reading of Ordinance 669. There have been no changes made to the ordinance since its first <br />
