3.0 STAFF COMMENT 3.1 In reviewing this request, staff has made the following findings: 1. The sanitary sewer within this easement provides service to the existing building on the property and to the building to the east (MILSOLV Minnesota). The proposed sanitary sewer realignment will not affect sanitary sewer service to this property, 2. The vacation of the existing sanitary sewer easement will facilitate the expansion of the existing Old Dutch facility. The removal ofthe northern portion ofthe former Viking Sprinkler building will also create separation between the Old Dutch building and the API building to the north, 3. The proposed vacation of this sanitary sewer easement will not have an adverse impact on the general public health, safety and welfare, provided a replacement sanitary sewer line and easement are provided. 4.0 STAFF RECOMMENDA TION 4.1 Based on the findings outlined in Section 3.1 of this report, staff recommends approval of the request for vacation of a 20' sanitary sewer easement and the acceptance of a new 18' sanitary sewer easement by the City, with the following provision: 1.
