<br />March 10, 1992 <br /> <br />FROM: <br /> <br />steve Gatlin ~~~~ <br />steve sarkoz~ - <br /> <br />TO: <br /> <br />SUBJECT: <br /> <br />WILLARD DD LOUISB GROVE, DOIDGB BASBMBIIT VACATION, <br />1975 NOR'l'B OXFORD STREBT <br /> <br />Attached is a letter received February 26 from Mr. and Mrs. Grove, <br />expressing concern about the process and cost of facilitating a <br />,drainage easement vacation that they suggest should have been the <br />city's responsibility some twenty years earlier. This issue <br />deserves our careful consideration and response. <br /> <br />Several questions come to mind prior to responding to the Groves: <br /> <br />o Does the City have other similar drainage easements <br />covering entire occupied and developed residential <br />lots? How many? <br /> <br />o Were other similar drainage easements routinely <br />vacated and, if so, what prompted the vacation <br />process in those instances? <br /> <br />o Do we have any existing City policies which address <br />vacating drainage easements which pre-existed resi- <br />dential property development? <br /> <br />Presumably the development of a single family home on a lot fully <br />restricted by a drainage easement should have been caught in the <br />building permit process. Are there any records on this or other <br />lots having a similar history? Please see me as soon as possible <br />.once these questions are fully researched. I would like to respond <br />to the Groves by the end of this week. <br /> <br />Thank you for your help in this matter. <br /> <br />Attachment <br />
