jMP <br />January 21, 1980 <br />#528 Navarre Lane Vacation <br />Page 2 <br />^S2S <br />A» Comments from the Public Works Director (Cont.) <br />I only wish to suggest that we should determine what effect if any <br />this would have on our total miles in the City in regard to M.S.A. <br />monies. We should also be concerned that the fire hydrant at the <br />south end be accessible to the gas station on the corner, perhaps <br />the street cannot be vacated all the way to County Road 19. <br />B. Hennepin County Highway Department's Response <br />The Traffic Division and Preliminary Design Section reviewed the <br />CSAH 19, CSAH 15 intersection revision along with your vacation of <br />Navarre Lane. To allow for channelization at the intersection, we <br />are requesting an additional 33 ft. of right of way through the <br />Navarre Lane corridor, making the right of way 66 ft. from the center <br />of CSAH 19. I have attached a half section map showing the area <br />requested. <br />Although Mr. Weigelt's letter does not respond specifically to <br />Mr. Martin's request to maintain his access off Shadywood (Cty. Rd. 19), <br />he has assured me that there would be no problem. In fact the <br />additional right of way requested by the County would assure that <br />access. <br />C. City Attorney's Response <br />I have enclosed a copy oi State Statute 412.851 - Vacation of Streets <br />for your information. <br />D. Staff Recommendation <br />I recommend a partial vacation of Navarre Lane, that portion encroached <br />by a corner of the church building, based on the following findings: <br />1. City maintains the eastern portion of Navarre Lane from the <br />intersection of Olive Avenue - serving church parking lot at rear. <br />2. If completely vacated, the City would be responsible for enforcing <br />all conditions - to maintain site. <br />3. Hennepin County Highway Department wants an additional 33' of <br />Navarre Lane at the western end to assist in their plans for expanding <br />County 19 & 15 intersection. The City has stated very clearly that <br />they are against such expansion plans. <br />4. Gas, telephone, water and sewer lines are located throughout the <br />Navarre Lane right of way. City would be liable if fire hydrant on <br />south side is not accessible in case of emergency. <br />5. Partial vacation will give clear title to the church and alleviate <br />their financial burdens. <br />i i <br />1.
