SUBDIVISION OF A LOT LINE REARRANGEMENT <br />The Affidavit of Publication and Certificate of Mailing were noted. <br />The applicants were present. <br />Mabusth reported that the comprehensive application was for a lot line rearrangement and <br />the vacation of a portion of unimproved Hill Street. The property to be divided amongst <br />applicants consists of lots 17 and 1.8, which have been legally combined, and have been <br />assessed one sewer unit. The Skoog property would gain all of the vacated Hill Street. <br />Lot 17 would go with Christensen's lot, and lot 18 would remain with the Skoog property. <br />A 10' drainage and utility easement shall be dedicated within the vacated right -of -way to <br />the extreme south edge, so as not to impede future additions to the Skoog residence. <br />Mabusth said the City has no interest in Hill Street and is awaiting confirmation from <br />surveyor to determine if there are any utilities located in Hill Street. <br />Lindquist asked the width of Hill Street and was informed there is a 40' right -of -way. <br />The applicants had nothing to add but asked that the sewer assessment be waived. <br />Peterson said the Planning Commission is unable to waive the sewer fee but the request <br />would be forwarded to the Council. It was noted that the Planning Commission is in favor <br />of waiving the sewer assessment. <br />There were no public comments. <br />Lindquist moved, Berg seconded, to approve the lot line rearrangement, subject to the <br />legal combination of the lots, and approve the vacation of Hill Street, subject to applicant <br />dedicating a 10' easement to be located at the extreme south portion of the vacated right - <br />of -way. Vote: Ayes 5, Nays 0. <br />• <br />
