A. Salo Maintenance Agreement
City Manager Yunker reviewed Staff has been working with the property owners of the storm
water ponds, Doran SLV III, LLC and SVAP III Silver Lake Village LLC that serve the Silver
Lake Village Area which has been known for many years as Salo Park, to come to an agreement
to allow the City to handle the maintenance of the area around these ponds.
The intent of the Salo Park area from its inceptions was to be an amenity for the retail area, and
the City as a whole. As a result, the expectations of the residents is for the area to be maintained
at the same level as any other City park. However, given the change in ownership over the years,
the maintenance of the area has suffered, and City Staff is often put in position to address issues

2 resident concerns. Staff feels it would be more efficient for all parties if the maintenance
3 activities were integrated into the overall City parks maintenance activities.

5 The City's legal counsel has been an active participant in these discussions, and the
6 recommended avenue for this is for the property owners to grant an easement to the City for the
7 purposes of performing those routine maintenance activities. The property owners would retain
8 ownership of the Salo Park area, as well as the responsibility for maintenance of the storm water
9 ponds, while granting a perpetual easement to the City for maintenance activities.

11 A summary of the responsibilities for each party are:
12 City of St. Anthony Responsibilities

27 this will make maintenance more efficient and better meet the expectations of the residents in the
28 area to maintain Salo Park at the same level of maintenance as all other parks in the City. The
