CC Regular Session 5.7. Meeting Date: 04/13/2021 By: Chris Anderson, Community Development Information Title Adopt Resolution #21-064 Granting an Easement Encroachment Agreement on Multiple Lots in Riverstone 5th Addition (Project No. 20-130); Case of Riverstone Development LLC Purpose/Background: Riverstone Development LLC (the "Applicant") has multiple lots in the Riverstone 5th Addition that are impacted by wider drainage and utility easements. Each of the impacted lots has a ten (10) foot wide drainage and utility easement ("Easement") along one side due to the presence of stormwater pipes that convey stormwater from the street(s) to stormwater ponds. The wider Easements are impacting the siting of homes on these lots, due to encroachment into the Easements of eave overhangs . The following table outlines the properties impacted (the "Subject Properties) : Lot 1 2 7 1 11 12 10 11 20 21 6 8 L 9 J L Block F- L 2 2 3 3 3 4 4 4 4 7 8 8 Address 8744 151st Ave 8756 151st Ave 8788 151st Ave 15146 Tiger St 15216 Tiger St 15228 Tiger St 15213 Tiger St 15225 Tiger St 15226 Snowy Owl St 15214 Snowy Owl St 15286 Quintana Ct 15273 Quintana Ct 15275 Quintana Ct Notification: The City attempted to notify Property Owners, as reflected in the Anoka County Property Records, within 350 feet of the Subject Property of the request. Observations/Alternatives: This concern was originally detected through the Building Permit review process, where it was discovered that a six (6) inch eave overhang encroached into the Easement on one of the Subject Properties (8744 151st Ave NW). Staff then reviewed the other lots in Riverstone 5th Addition and found twelve (12) additional lots where this same issue may arise. In response to the permit application being sent back to the Applicant to modify the plan or adjust the building location, the Applicant requested approval of Easement Encroachment Agreement for all thirteen (13) of these lots.
