Gresheim: <br /> �Ir. and Mrs. Carlson, the residents at the above address, <br /> have advised me of ynur request that they indicate a price <br /> for the 15 foot easement for roadway purposes whic�l the City <br /> is seeking. As you know, the Carlsc�ns have raised a number <br /> of issues regarding the maintenance of the roadway , traffic <br /> control and other issues relative to their health and safety <br /> which is parti.cularly sensitive because of the proximity of <br /> the proposed easemer�t to their dwelling. It is the Carlsons ' <br /> understanding that the City will riot make any particular <br /> commitments relative to these issues and only asks that they <br /> inc1:'t�ate what their price would be for the requested <br /> nasement. <br /> `I';,.is puts the Carlsons in quite a difficult position because <br /> a rc�adway so cl.ose to their home so greatly effects their <br /> ].i��ing and safety that they can only view it as a <br /> �;ubstantial loss t� them well beyond what would normally be <br /> c�1r.�aected far a .roadway easement . <br /> �'�c�cor.d�ngly, �n an eftort to resol�ae this dilemma and at the <br /> sarne time assist the City, the Carlsons would propose �o g�ve <br /> i.l1e Cf ty free of charge a five i'oot easement along the <br /> YJesL-crY� pr.operty line . This might necessitate expanding <br /> the easement requirements by the neighbcr to the West, <br /> how�yer , the distances to improvements an their propert_y are <br /> such that any effect would be remote. At the same time, not <br /> having to pa� the Car�lsons their damages for the presently <br /> propos�d roadway easement shauld more than offset the minor <br /> realignment of the roadway . Even under this alter�r.ate <br /> proposal the roadway represents a real hinderance to the <br /> Carlsons ' property, however, as I anY sure you can appreciate <br /> �;he proximity of the proposed alignment is so close that a <br /> few feet becomes very crucial . It is our sincere hope <br /> that this alte:.^nate suggestion and gift to the City will <br /> resolve the present dilemma. <br /> �;� ' <br /> ,F, ; ��, <br /> I��:� � YI <br />
