CC Regular Session 6. 1. Meeting Date: 05/ 11 /2021 By: Chloe McGuire Brigl, Community Development Information Title: PUBLIC HEARING: Adopt Ordinance 21-12 Vacating Right -of -Way and Easement for Bunker Lake Industrial Park Third Addition; Case of PSD LLC (Project #21-109) Purpose/Background: The purpose of this case is to review a request from PSD, LLC (the "Applicant") to vacate existing drainage and utility easements and right-of-way related to the Bunker Lake Industrial Park 3rd Addition Plat. This is a common step prior to recording final plat to clean up title work and survey documents. Notification: No notification is required for final plat or site plan approval. This case does not request any deviations from the City's Code that would require notice (e.g. variance); however, notice is required for the ordinance to vacate right-of-way and easements onsite. Public hearing was provided for the proposed right-of-way and easement vacation. Staff provided notice in the City's Official Newspaper, the Anoka County UnionHerald. Observations/Alternatives: Summary The Applicant is requesting approval of Final Plat for Bunker Lake Industrial Park 3rd Addition and Site Plan approval for BLIP 4 (the 4th building in the development). BLIP has been a very successful industrial district in the City of Ramsey, which is generally south of Bunker Lake Boulevard and west of Ferret Street and Armstrong Boulevard. The industrial park is home to Adrenaline Sports, Team Packaging, Jump'n Gymnastics, Northwoods Machine, Diamond Graphics, and 401 Manufacturing, to name a few. The existing buildings are east of Jackal Street NW and south of 147th Lane NW. The new proposed building will be east of Jackal Street and north of 147th Lane NW. The City is excited to see the desire and need for industrial growth in Ramsey. Vacations This case includes requests for right-of-way (ROW) and drainage and utility (D/U) easement vacation. Those requests are handled by City Council only. These are standard requests associated with site plans and final plats, previous easements are vacated on the underlying parcel and are re -dedicated with the new plat. This helps maintain a clean title on the property and recordings against the property at the County. In this case, the cul-de-sac is being reconfigured slightly and all necessary rights -of -way and easements will be rededicated on the new plat. Funding Source: The Applicant is responsible for all costs associated with this request. Recommendation: The Planning Commission recommends approval of the project. Action:
