At that time all that was being indicated was that the Planning Commission would look favorably on vacating the alley. There is a formal process that must be followed, similar to the variance process, to actually complete the vacation: 1. Submit an application consisting of: a. Completed application form (enclosed). This form must be signed by the majority of property owners who abut the axea to be vacated. As an alternative you could submit consent letters from these property owners. You would need signatures of the owner of three of the following properties: • 2705 Ethel Avenue - yourself • 279� Ethel Avenue - G. Gordon Amundson • 2700 Casco Point Road - Daniel Buesing or Linda Running • 2684/2686 Casco Point Road (Two parcels but counts only once because they are in the same ownership.)-D. L. Runkle or L. F. Runkle b. A legal description of the area to be vacated. Usually this comes from a surveyor. c. Processing fee of$700. d. Certified property owners list. Directions for obtaining this list are highlighted on the back of the application form. 2. Post the sibn you will be given at the time of application. 3. City Staff will contact utility companies and City Engineer to obtain consent to the vacation. Utility companies or City Engineer may request a utility easement over all or part of the alley. They alley would still be yours but you can't put buildings within a utility easement. Telephone(952)249-4600 • Fax(9�2)249-4616 www.ci.orona.mn.us
