Minutes from this meeting are attached, with this motion highlighted in yellow on page 10. Attached is a copy of the easement agreement which has been reviewed and approved by the Northfork Homeowner's Association (NFHOA), and was signed by NFHOA President William Kingston. Council is requested to approve the attached easement agreement, granting the City the right to utilize the described 16-foot wide corridor to construct a paved trail connection through the north end of the Northfork development in approximately the same alignment and at the same elevation of the existing foot path. See attached Figure 1 which includes existing aerial images. The same figure without an aerial image is included as Exhibit B in the easement agreement. Notification: No notification was required for this case. Observations/Alternatives: Observations: As previously discussed by Council, a public trail connection is proposed along Andrie Street and 164th Lane per the attached Master Park and Trail Plan. However, an alternate public trial connection through the corridor identified in the attached easement agreement is a reasonable alternative option. Alternatives: Alternative #1 — Motion to adopt Resolution #16-05-101 approving Permanent Trail Easement Agreement on Outlot B, Northfork and Outlot A, Northfork Trail Addition. Alternative #2 — Motion to deny adoption of Resolution #16-05-101 at this time.
