W�REAS, by allowing said properties to go tax forfeit,
the property owner gives up any substantial property rights for
use of said property, and therefore the City's refusal to provide
sanitary sewer service to said Lots 3 and 4 would not deny the
property owner of a substantial property right; and
WHEREAS, the parcel is unbuildable unless sewer is
provided or the property is attached to adjacent vacant parcels
because of insufficient room to provide for house, well, and
primary and future septic system drainfields.
NOW, THEREFOR$, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Counci 1 of
the City of Orono, Minnesota that sewer service will not be
' provided to Lots 3 and 4, Block 3, Bayside Addition to Lake
Minnetonka, because the property is substandard in area, is
intended by its owner to be allowed to go tax forfeit, is
• adjacent to other vacant land which will be provided with
municipal sewer service and to which this property could be
attached to create a single buildable site that, while still
substandard, would more closely meet the 2 acre requirement for a
buildable lot than would the properties taken individually.
Adopted by the City Council of the City of Orono,
Minnesota on this lOth day of August, 1992.
