WHEREAS, after due standing and consideration, the Planning Commission
recommended approval of the requested easement vacation and the City Council of the City of

to Highway 12 across from Brimhall Avenue. This land was encumbered by
, Highway Easements which MnDOT concluded were no longer needed, and
applicants were enabled to acquire the parcel from the underlying owners, subject '
to conditions which gave the City and Service 800 certain drainage, utility and
road easements to make this a useful vehicular access point for Service 800 and .
the adjacent properties in the future. '
� 2. As part of the aforesaid Road Agreement, the City agreed to vacate the 10'
Drainage and Utility Easements in Otten's property adjacent to the Brimhall
Triangle, in exchange for new easements along the new Highway 12 right-of-way
line, which have been granted. This application is in fulfillment of the City's
obligation under the Agreement.
