H. <br />DOUGLAS HILL, 2425 SC'OTC H PINE LANE, AND WILLIAM TOLES, 2435 <br />SC OTCH PINE LANE - V ACATION OF SCOTCH PINE LANE - VACATION OF <br />DRAINAGE AND UTILITV EASEMENTS - PRELIMINARY SUBDIVISION <br />(REPLAT) 8:00-8:37 P.M. <br />The Certificate of Mailing and Affidavit of Publication were noted. <br />The applicants, Mr & Mrs Marfield. Mr & Mrs Hill, and William Toles, were present. <br />Gaffron reported that the request is for a vacation of a road right-of-way and utility <br />vacation with a rededication of utility ea.sement and replat of the Dicon Addition The <br />property was platted to create 3 buiidable lots and a public road in 1974 when it was a I- <br />acre zoning area and consisted of 3-1 /2 acres The replat would allow the Hill property <br />better lakeshore access A 50' utility easement runs east to west in the existing plat. The <br />current plat includes a 50' dedication of CoRd 51 The proposal is to regrant easements <br />necessary to accommodate existing and future utility needs. <br />Gaffron noted that a letter from NSP indicates there is a distribution facility in the area. <br />NSP will not give their approval for the easement vacation and any changes will have to <br />be made at the expense of the applicants Gaffron thought if the existing utility lines were <br />located that NSP would possibly approve the easement vacation in exchange for new <br />easements. A Minnegasco letter said there are natural gas lines in the area, and the <br />company objects to the proposal unless suitable right of way and rededication is resolved. <br />Peterson clarified that the utility easements must remain as they now exist. Gaffron <br />confirmed this <br />Gaffron said City sewer was extended to the area in 1980 with 10' easement on either side <br />of the line The City Engineer indicates 30' total width is needed for that utility easement. <br />It was noted that the applicants have not provided a survey of where all the utility lines are <br />located. This is required and is being asked for from the applicants. <br />3
