Bonestroo <br /> <br />Dallas larson <br />Administrator <br />City of Centerville <br />1880 Main Street <br />Centerville, MN 55038 <br /> <br />CENTERVILLE, MN <br /> <br />Re: 1654 lakeland Circle - Proposed Easement Vacation <br />City of Centerville <br />Bonestroo File No.: 000616-07000-0 <br /> <br />Dear Dallas: <br /> <br />As requested, we have evaluated the possibility of vacating portions of the drainage and utility easement in <br />the rear yard of the property at 1654 lakeland Circle (lot 15, Block 2 - lakeland Hills). <br /> <br />As is depicted on the certificate of survey, there is a large distance between the west edge of the easement <br />and the edge of the pond (approx. 57 feet). After examining the grading plan, it appears that this area, <br />west of the pond, was designated drainage and utility easement to accommodate drainage from north to <br />south as shown on the attached sketch. Therefore, unless the property owner can demonstrate that the <br />proposed improvements can be made without impact to the drainage swale, we would not recommend any <br />easement vacation. Thisdrainage:swale is especially critical because the homeowner's house sits one foot <br />below the overflow elevation of the pond. Proper drainage through the swale protects the home from <br />flooding. <br /> <br />Please call with any questions. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />BONESTROO <br /> <br />~4~ <br /> <br />Mark Statz, PE <br />City Engineer <br />651-604-4709 <br /> <br />Attachments: Sketches of Area <br /> <br />copy:.
