Hellings <br /> Attorney at Law <br /> 13000 Crooked Lake Blvd <br /> Coon Rapids, MN 55448 <br /> Re: City owned parcel 24 31 22 33 0002 <br /> Dear Mr. Hellings: <br /> I have your March 18th, 1997 letter at hand. The land in its <br /> present status cannot be sold to a developer. The parcel was <br /> acquired under a restricted deed for the specific public use of a <br /> park. It must be used for that purpose or be reconveyed to the <br /> state which returns it to forfeit status. See MS282.01 Subd. id. <br /> For the City of Centerville to obtain an unrestricted deed, which <br /> would allow them to sell to a developer, they must reconvey the <br /> property to the state and make application to acquire the parcel <br /> for a nonspecific public use paying the appraised price as <br /> established by the County Board. <br /> The city council should adopt a resolution directing the mayor <br /> and the city clerk /administrator to execute the necessary <br /> documents to reconvey the parcel to the State of Minnesota and <br /> make application to acquire the property for a nonspecific public <br /> use. Both of these documents (enclosed) can be completed at the <br /> same time and forwarded to me along with the council resolution. <br /> FAX: 323.5682 Affirmative Action !
