-'12- The property owners wanted to add a third stall to their attached garage and they couldn't meet the side yard setback unless the excess utility easement was vacated. He advised that the Loftons are selling their property and the title company could not find evidence that a portion of the drainage and utility easement had been vacated to accommodate the garage addition. Staff researched the property file and found that the public hearing properly identified Lot 45 as the subject property, but the ordinance that was recorded had a typographical error. The recorded ordinance identified Lot 46; consequently the easement vacation is recorded against Lot 46. City Staff recommends adoption of t~vo ordinances: one to repeal Ordinance #97-17 vacating an easement on Lot 46; and the other to correctly vacate the easement on Lot 45. Both ordinances will be recorded at Anoka County and the error will be remedied. Motion by Councilmember Hendriksen, seconded by Councilmember Zimmerman, to introduce an ordinance to repeal Ordinance #97-17 and introduce an ordinance to vacate a portion of the drainage and utility easement on Lot 45, Block 6, River's Bend. Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Gamec, Councilmembers Hendriksen, Zimmerman, and Anderson. VotingNo: None. Absent: Councilmember Kurak. Case #3: Report from the Personnel Committee 1) Consider Reclassification of Crime Prevention Specialist Councilmember Aa~derson reviewed the Personnel Committee recommendation that the City Council reclassify the Crime Prevention Specialist position to the pay scale of $36,334 minimum/S45,418 maximum, due to the job points assigned to this position and the comparable wages for this position with other Stanton IV cities. Given the employee's cra'rent rate of pay at Step 2 ($32,292), it is proposed to place the employee at Step 1 of the new pay scale, at $36,334, which is the closest pay rate in the new range to the current pay rate and to enact this change retroactive to January 1, 2002. 2) Consider Title Change and Reclassification of Full-Time Building Maintenance Worker Councilmember Anderson reviewed the Perso~mel Committee recommendation that the City Council change the title and approve a reclassification of the Building Maintenance Worker position currently occupied by Dan Bray to Senior Building Maintenance Worker and to the pay scale of $31,276/minimum to $39,094/maximum, due to the increased responsibility reflected in the revised job description. Given the employee's current standing in the pay scale, it is proposed to place the employee at Step 3 of the new pay scale, at $34,402. Staff'is proposing to enact this change retroactive to January 1, 2002. Motion by Councilmember Anderson, seconded by Councilmember Hendriksen, to ratify the recommendations of the Personnel Committee as indicated above by adopting Resolution #02- 07-165 (Crime Prevention Specialist) and Resolution #02~07-166 (Full-Time Building Maintenance Worker).
