AMENDMENT TO ELOFSON EASEMENT AGREEMENT FRONT STREET PROJECT By: Peter Raatikka, City Engineer Case # 5 Background: Last spring the City entered into an easement agreement with Ralph and Doris Elofson, which required the city to provide certain benefits as full payments for property rights. one of the benefits was to provide commercial accesses onto Front Street and Sunfish Lake Boulevard in accordance with the land owners development plan. The Elofson's do not have an approved development plan and we are currently constructing Front Street. Therefore, as indicated in my letter of October 31, 1988 to Mr. Randy Elofson, construction of the commercial accesses at the time would be premature. To delete these entrances an amendment to the agreement would have to be prepared and the City would have to pay the Elofsons $4,890 in lieu of constructing the entrances. Enclosed is a copy of my letter to Randy Elofson dated October 31, 1988 discussing the amendment. Recommendation: I would recommend that the city Council pass a motion directing the City Attorney to prepare an amendment to the agreement deleting the construction of the commercial entrances by the City in exchange for a $4,890 payment to the Elofsons and authorize the Mayor and City Administrator to sign the amendment. Council Action: Motion to direct the City Attorney to prepare an amendment to the E!ofson Easement Agreement deleting the construction of the commercial entrances by the City in exchange for a $4,890 payment to the Elofsons and authorize the Mayor and city Administrator to sign the amendment.
