During the sale of the property, it was discovered that the City of <br />4 Roseville still has a temporary easement for construction of a storm sewer from 1970. The original <br />5 easement acquired both permanent and temporary easements to construct storm sewer improvements. <br />6 The owner has requested the City release the temporary easement as there is no longer a need for the <br />7 temporary easement. A permanent storm sewer easement acquired at the same time would still <br />8 remain. <br />9 On March 9, 2020, Council approved the release of the easement but it was later decided a vacation <br />10 process would be better to resolve this easement. <br />11 The City Attorney has drafted the resolution vacating the construction easement (Attachment A). <br />12 Since a petition was not received, a four-fifths vote is required to complete the vacation. <br />13 The vacation will be not be official until such time as the City Manager executes and records a <br />14 Notice of Completion of this vacation. <br />15 F INANCIAL I MPACTS <br />16 There is no financial impact to the City of Roseville. <br />17 S TAFF R ECOMMENDATION <br />18 Approve a resolution approving the vacation of a construction easement located on Lot 2, Block 1, <br />19 Rosedale Center Seventh Addition, Ramsey County, Minnesota. <br />20 R EQUESTED C OUNCIL A CTION <br />21 Conduct a public hearing receiving any public comments related to the proposed easement vacation. <br />22 Consider approval of a resolution approving the vacation of a construction easement located on <br />23 Lot 2, Block 1, Rosedale Center Seventh Addition, Ramsey County, Minnesota. <br />Prepared by: Jesse Freihammer, City Engineer/Assistant Public Works Director <br />Attachments: A: Resolution <br />B: Public Hearing Agenda <br />C: Right-of-Way Vacation Sketch <br />Page 1 of 1 <br /> <br />
