I CASE # REQUEST TO VACATE DRAINAGE AND UTILITY EASEMENT; CASE OF PAUL AND LOIS BACH By: Zoning Administrator Sylvia Frolik Background: Paul and Lois Bach reside at 16801 Radium St. N.W. The neighbors to the south, Joe and Rose Karst at 16747 Radium St. N.W., were proposing to build a detached accessory structure in their back yard and had the common property line between the two lots surveyed and staked. In the process, it was determined that the Bach's attached garage was located right on the common property line. To remedy the situation, City Staff approved an administrative subdivision wherein the Karst's conveyed a small piece of property to the Bachs in order that their home and attached garage would meet the 10 foot setback. The following items are enclosed for your information: a) Site location map b) Site plan c) Easement to be vacated d) Proposed easement vacation ordinance e) New easement to be dedicated Notification: In accordance with State Statute, staff attempted to notify all persons owning property within 350 feet of Mr. Gobernatz' property of the request for easement vacation and related public hearing. Observations: There is a standard 10 foot wide drainage and utility easement along both sides of the common property line. As a follow up to the administrative subdivision, it is necessary to vacate this existing easement and replace it with another easement along the new common property line between the Bachs and the Karsts. Recommendation: City Staff recommends vacating the existing easement and requiring replacement of it along the new common property line. Council Action: Motion to introduce ordinance #00-. to vacate a portion of the drainage and utility easement on Lots 6 and 7, Block 4, Klemish Addition.
