Regular City Council Meeting Monday,July 9, 2018 Page 8 Vice Chair Wozniak responded he is not involved in the current program; Waste Management is the vendor. He believes it is going to a compost site in Rose- mount, which is the only site in the area that receives organics locally. There is no place in the East metro for composting or processing organics. Composting may not be where this process is headed with collected organics; it may be anaer- obic digestion with collected organics, which is likely 4 to 6 years out. d. Consider Resolution Approving the Vacation of a Portion of the Chandler Avenue Right-of-Way City Engineer Freihammer briefly reviewed this request, recommending approval as detailed in the RCA dated July 10, 2018. The vacation of the right-of-way was requested from two adjacent property owners. There are no utilities in this corri- dor or any need for future utilities. He noted that one resident provided feedback in support of the vacation. City Manager Trudgeon noted that legal notices were provided for this legal hear- ing. Mayor Roe reviewed public hearing protocol and opened the public hearing at ap- proximately 8:00 p.m. Public Comment Daniel Grundman, 519 Hilltop Ave Mr. Grundman noted he is the adjacent property owner and he requests approval. With no one else appearing to speak, Mayor Roe closed the public hearing at ap- proximately 8:02 p.m. Willmus moved, McGehee seconded, adoption of Resolution No. 11519 (Attach- ment A), entitled "Approving the Vacation of a Portion of Unused Right-of-Way of Chandler Avenue Within the Rolling Green Plat." Council Discussion Councilmember Willmus commented that the vacation of this easement makes sense. Over time, the City has a few of these that will come before the Council, and it makes sense they are returned to the properties they were originally taken from. Roll Call Ayes: Willmus, Laliberte, Etten, McGehee and Roe. Nays: None.
