City Clerk, St. thony MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor-' City 'Council and -City Manager of the' City of St. Anthony RE: Proposed Plat of Christen Addition DATE: July 7, 1981 We have reviewed .the proposed plat of .Christen Addition, and the title to the property being platted., as evidenced by three abstracts of- title, the most recent of which is certified to April • 29, .1981 7:00 A.M. , by Title- Insurance Company of Minnesota. ' The following -are our conclusions with- respect to the title and the plat. 1. TITLE: .Based upon examination of the plat and the abstracts, -. we conclude the following: a. The record fee owners of the property described in the plat are Flossie Christen, a single person, - as to a portion of the property, and Robert L. Christen and Rosemarie Christen., .as to a portion. of the_ property. The final plat has been correctly • prepared for signature by these owners. b. The property is "subject to the rights of the public over the West -33 feet thereof" . In the plat, the West 33 feet is being ' _ . dedicated as part of County Road No. 136 (Silver Lake Road) . By letter dated March 2.6 1981, the County- of Hennepin has requested dedication of an additional 7 feet of right .of way in the plat. The.- County's approval of the plat is also conditioned on no - additional access to Silver Lake Road. C. The most current abstract shows that real estate taxes due and. payablein 1.980 and prior years are paid; and that the taxes payable in 1981 on the property owned by Flossie Christen have been paid, but that the- taxes payable in 1981 have not been -paid on the balance of the -property. Since the abstract was certified before the first -.half was due. on -May 31, . 1981, the taxes may -now have been paid. In any case, the taxes . currently due must be paid- before the plat can be recorded by the owners. 2. PLAT CONTENT. We have the following comments with respect to the proposed plat in consideration of the platting requirements of Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 505 and Section 330 of the City ' s Subdivi- sion Ordinances, and the requirements of Section 6, Subdivision 5, Paragraph 2 (Area and Width) of the City' s Zoning Ordinance. a. The plat shows no drainage and utility easements. If no such easements are necessary, the Council should waive the requirements of Section 330 : 35 . b. We assume that staff has checked the building locations against the height, area and setback requirements of Section 6, Subdivision 5 of _ the Zoning Ordinance. C. We have assumed that the name of the proposed plat is proper and that the surveyor has checked the name to make sure that it is not the same as or deceptively similar to any plat previously recorded in Ramsey or Hennepin County. d. When the proposed plat has been approved, it must be .recorded by the owners within 30 days. A copy of the recorded plat should be furnished to the City, as required by the City's platting • ordinance. This memorandum is for the background and information of the persons to whom addressed. Since the contents of this memo- randum do not necessarily represent the position of the City, it is probably best if the contents are not revealed to anyone other than the persons to whom addressed.
