AGENDA ITEM <br />Item No.: 7 <br />Date: September 24, 2018 <br />Item Description: LAI 8-000080 — 800 North Arm, City of Orono o/b/o James Franzel. <br />Easement Vacation <br />Presenter: Jeremy Barnhart, AICP Agenda Public Hearing <br />Community Development Director Section: <br />1. Purpose. The purpose of this item is to consider vacation of an easement that is being replaced with <br />a new easement. Hold a public hearing. <br />2. Background. On August 27th, the Council approved the final plat for Franzel addition, a two lot <br />subdivision of property at 800 North Arm. <br />An easement was established in 2010 providing access to a liftstation on the property. However, due to <br />steep slopes in the area, Public works staff does not use this easement, and a new easement was <br />negotiated during the review of the subdivision, to protect a usable actual access route to the liftstation. <br />The easement protecting the sanitary sewer infrastructure is correctly shown on the plat. <br />The original access easement is proposed to be vacated, because while in place, it restricts private use of <br />that portion of the property. A new easement, with the corrected legal description has been prepared. <br />3. Staff Recommendation. Staff recommends the Council open a public hearing and receive any public <br />comment, approve the easement vacation and the replacement easement. <br />COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED <br />Staff recommends the Council open a public hearing and receive any public comment, approve the <br />easement vacation, and the replacement easement. <br />Exhibits <br />Exhibit A.
