Mayor Johnson asked if electrical easements were given on the back lot
lines.
Councilman Shelquist said the sketch indicates five feet on each side
of the rear property lines.
Mayor Johnson asked Ms. Smith if she had signed with NSP for easements.
Ms. Smith said her stepfather had torrence title and she was sure he
signed easement agreements with NSP.
Mayor Johnson asked Ms. Smith if the east /west easements on the north
and south property lines were actually easements or if they could be
setbacks.
Ms. Smith stated she did not know what he meant by easements or setbacks.
Mayor Johnson explained the setbacks would be for allowing setbacks on
houses, garages, etc., easements would allow the city to dig holes or
whatever may be necessary to maintain certain public services.
Mayor Johnson asked what the elevation of the streets is.
Ms. Smith said she did not know the exact elevation but that water stood
in the southeast corner of the street after a rain.
MSP (Johnson - Shelquist) to approve the minor subdivision request of
Arlue Smith creating two lots, one 115' X 245' fronting on Groveland,
one 115' X 178.2' fronting on Fairchild. A utility easement of a ten
foot strip at the point 211 -1/2 feet back on the westerly lot and a
drainage easement on the north east/West line of ten feet and five feet
on the south east /west line, and further that elevations of the homes
or dwellings are to be constructed so that the drainage flows from the
back lot lines out to the streets.
Councilman Shelquist said he feels if there are no drainage easements on
adjacent lots that this is not necessary on this lot.
MSP (Shelquist - Pickar) to amend the motion to direct the administrator to
investigate the five and ten foot drainage easements on the sketch and
if they do not exit that these easements be deleted from this plat.
Vote on the main motion.
Mayor Johnson directed the administrator to inform the building inspector
that at such times applications are taken to review and make sure they are
clear, concise and accurate.
Mr. Donald Balk, 2656 County Road J, spoke on his major subdivision request.
He said he has been trying to get his property divided since June. He
said he was delayed initially because of surveyor problems and when he
finally went to the Planning Commission with his preliminary plat, the
Planning Commission had a letter from Ramsey County saying they were taking
an additional 16 feet of right of way for the County Road J which made it
difficult for the Planning Commission to decide if they should allow six lots
on Sunnyside or not. So rather than wait any longer, he decided to go into
