Review Exhibit B, the current <br />plat map suggests that the remainder of Lake Street has been vacated. Review Exhibits I-l, 1-2 and <br />J. Note survey of Lots 8 and 9 of 1962 (M) shows Lake Street not vacated but the 1989 survey of <br />the same property (1-2) shows Lake Street vacated and J, the 1990 survey of Lots 5 and 6, shows no <br />reference to Lake Street. <br />Staff searched the various plat maps to determine if there was a visible sign of a document number <br />to reflect the legal vacation of Lake Street. Staff found no document number and contacted the <br />County Rick Jorgenson of Hennepin County advised that Lake Street, originally dedicated in the <br />1888 plat of "Bergquist and Wicklund's Park, Hennepin County, Minnesota", was never vacated. <br />Somehow recent plat maps failed to show Lake Street. The 1981 plat of Tristana Cove (Lot 1, <br />application property) designated Lake Street at its shoreline.
