<br />TO: <br />FROM: <br />SUBJECT: <br />DATE: <br /> <br />Honorable May~ and City Council members <br />Kim Stephan ~ <br />Parks & Recreation Recommendation <br />December 5, 2002 <br /> <br />Vacation of Goiffon Road I Trail Easement <br /> <br />The Parks and Recreation Committee had previously discussed the <br />possibility of council obtaining a trail easement from S1. Genevieve's <br />Church if there were negotiations regarding a land swap between the <br />city and the church. At this time, it was requested by the City <br />Administrator that the committee look at where it would be most <br />advantageous to place a trail if Goiffon Road were to be vacated and <br />an easement could be obtained from the church. <br /> <br />The committee looked at various options for a trail easement, but it <br />depends on what the church decides to do with rebuilding or <br />renovating. As the vacation process moves forward, the Parks and <br />Recreation Committee would like to be involved in the negotiation <br />process to formulate a trail plan. The concern is when Goiffon Road <br />is closed the only route to Laurie LaMotte Park will be down Main <br />Street to Centerville Road which will be dangerous. <br /> <br />Motion was made by Committee Member Peterson, seconded by <br />Committee Member Walter to recommend to council that in the <br />vacation process of Goiffon Road a trail easement from Main <br />Street to Sorel Street be considered, with the location to be <br />determined at a later date to coincide with the renovation or <br />expansion of the church property. AU in Favor: Motion carried <br />unanimously. <br />
