MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL <br /> MEETING HELD ON OCTOBER 27, 1997 <br /> Jabbour asked what it would take to establish the facts for Olsen to be satisfied with <br /> ownership by the City. He encouraged Olsen to consider the facts and protect the rest of <br /> her property. Jabbour noted he would personally be furious if he lost some of his land, <br /> but indicated that the City has their hands somewhat tied as the use has established the <br /> City's right to the property. He voiced concern with involvement by the DNR and a <br /> possible request for a designated trail resulting in further loss. <br /> Kelley asked if Olsen would like to have further time to review the information. Olsen <br /> said she would like to further discuss the matter. Barrett said he would be happy to <br /> participate. <br /> Jabbour reviewed Olsen's options: 1) to challenge the City b court action to retrieve the <br /> property, noting the City can document its use; 2) note the piece of land removed from <br /> her total land and be reimbursed by the title insurance and buffer the remaining property. <br /> Jabbour said the portion lost is about 5-6' but a major portion remains and should be <br /> protected. Jabbour and Kelley agreed that the Olsen's should pursue recourse from their <br /> title insurance company. <br /> Jabbour asked Gaffron to become involved in the issue and determining what has <br /> occurred. He asked Gaffron to review aerial photographs. <br /> Kelley reported there is also an issue of liability noting the possibility of problems with <br /> the ditch. Kelley said the issue may take time to resolve. He noted changes have <br /> occurred on the property and could create problems for snowmobiling this winter with <br /> 27 <br />
