CC Regular Session Meeting Date: 08/10/2021 By: Bria Raines, Community Development Information 5. 8. Title Adopt Resolution #21-183 Approving an Easement Encroachment Agreement for an attached accessory structure in a drainage and utility easement at 16206 Sapphire St NW; Case of William Cowette (Prof. 21-119) Purpose/Background: The City received a Building Permit Application for a deck to be constructed at 16206 Sapphire Street NW (the "Subject Property") on August 15, 2017. The application was discussed and reviewed at the 8/22/2017 Development Review meeting. The application for a 14' deep deck that is 35' in length deck was denied. The property survey contains a "future deck" location outside of the drainage and utility easement (the "Easement"), whereas the application proposed a deck encroaching on the easement.The Property Owner had built the deck without a building permit. Due to the size of the Drainage and Utility Easement, the Property Owner is requesting an Easement Encroachment Agreement for the deck on the rear of the principle structure. This item was brought to the July 27, 2021 City Council meeting, where Council requested a revision to Resolution #21-183 to approve the accessory structure in the Drainage and Utility Easement on the Subject Property. Notification: Notification is not required when considering an Encroachment Agreement. Observations/Alternatives: The Property Owner is applying for an Easement Encroachment Agreement for the deck on the Subject Property. The Property Owner did not apply for a building permit until after -the -fact. City Staff recommend Easement Encroachment Agreement contingent on approval by the City Engineer to ensure the Easement can still function as intended. Funding Source: All costs associated with this request are the Applicant's responsibility. Recommendation: At the July 27, 2021 City Council meeting, members of the Council recommended revision to Resolution #21-183 to approve the Easement Encroachment Agreement to allow a deck to be located within the Easement at 16206 Sapphire Street NW. Action: Motion to adopt Resolution #21-183 approving an Easement Encroachment Agreement for an attached accessory structure in a drainage and utility easement at 16206 Sapphire St NW.
