Consent Agenda INTRODUCTION OF ORDINANCE CONVEYING A 20' STRIP OF LAND WITHIN FLINTWOOD HILLS 5TH ADDITION BY WILLIAM K. GOODRICH, CITY ATTORNEY BACKGROUND: You will recall that at your meeting on February 12, 1991, the Council approved the Final Plat of Flintwood Hills 5th Addition contingent on certain items being completed. One of those items was the conveyance by the City of its 20-foot strip of land which lies within proposed Lots 5 and 6 of the Plat. The City acquired fee title to this property in 1976, apparently for the purpose of a drainage and utility easement. The City Engineer has advised you that this property is no longer necessary to be retained for City use, as alter- nate drainage and utility easements have been provided. Pursuant to City Charter, an ordinance must be adopted before the City can convey land and/or its property interests. A "vacation" proceeding is not necessary, since the City has .fee title to this property and it was not dedicated for any specific purpose. I am therefore attaching a proposed ordinance for your review and introduction. The following motion is presented for your consideration: COUNCIL ACTION: Motion to introduce Ordinance No. 91- which is an ordi- nance authorizing the conveyance of the City's 20-foot strip of land to N.D.H.,Inc. which property is described as follows: The East 20 feet of the West 930 feet lying Southerly of the North 481.82 feet and lying Northerly of the center line of Industry Avenue of the Northwest 1/4 of the Northwest 1/4 of Section 36, Township 32, Range 25, Anoka County, Minne- sota, said distances being measured parallel with the North and West line of said Northwest 1/4 of the Northwest 1/4.
