REQUEST FOR SALE OF CITY OF RAMSEY PROPERTY P.I.N. 10-32.25-44-0009; CASE OF DARYL PETERSON By: Mark S. Banwart, Community Development Director Case # Background: On December 21, 1989, the City of Ramsey received a letter from Daryl Peterson (letter dated December 18, 1989) requesting the City of Ramsey to sell parcel identified as P.I.N. 10-32-25-44- 0009 to him at a minimal price. Staff investigation of this parcel indicates that apparently the City obtained this land parcel through tax forfeiture. Apparently, the CiD' obtained this land to insure possible access to parcels identified as P.I.N.'s 10-32-25-4~.-0021, 10-32-25-44-0022 and 10-32-25-44-0018. According to Cit.',, records, D;~'I and Joan Peterson own the parcels identified as P.I.N. 10-32-25-44-0021 and 10- 32-25-44-0018. The parcel identified as P.I.N. 10-32-25-44-0022 is owned by Terri L. Petcrson. For ,,,our information, the following is enclosed: B. C. D. Site location map A Site location map B Letter from Daryl Peterson (dated December 1 g, 1989) Affidavit of Publication (January 19, 1990) Observations: According to the City Attorney, Bill Goodrich, this particular parcel if determined to be surplus should be sold vs. vacated. It has been City policy that the revenues generated from the sale of surplus City property be placed into the Park Trust Fund to be used for park land acquisition and/or park improvements. On January 2, 1990, the Ramsey Planning and Zoning Commission recommended the sale of City of Ramsey surplus property P.I.N. 10-32-25-44-0009; that the revenues from the sale of Surplus property be placed into the Park Trust Fund; that all owners of property adjacent to P.I.N. ] 0-32- 25-44-0009 be notified of it's availabilih, for purchase; and that the purchaser of P.I.N. 10-32-25- 44-0009 shall consolidate that parcel wit[q his/her existing parcel. It was also noted that parcels are not considered buildable without 200 feet of frontage on a public road; acquisition of P.I.N. 10-32-25-44-0009 and consolidation of it with P.I.N. ] 0-32-25-4~- 0021 still would not result in sufficient frontage on a public road for P.I.N. 10-32-25-zl-zl-0021 to be considered buildable. On January 4., 1990, letters were sent to adjacent property owners informing them of the possible sale of City surplus property. Furthermore, based on City Attorney recommendation, Notice of Sale of Surplus Property was also posted at City Hall and was published in the City's official newspaper. On January 5, 1990, a resident representing the neighborhood came to City Hall requesting information on subdivision of P.I.N. 10-32-25-44-0021. He indicated that the neithbors were interested in increasing the size of their lots. It was indicated that such a subdivision ~ould require inclusion of their existing lots in order to avoid the need for outlots.
