Observations: The property owners circulated a petition within their neighborhood last winter and none of the signing property owners that signed the petition voiced opposition to the ice rink. Staff did not receive any complaints regarding the use of this rink last winter. The property owners have verbally agreed to follow the same conditions required by the pervious License Agreement approved in January 2023,which aligns with the conditions required by the City Council and included in the attached draft License Agreement. As of the date this case was published staff had not yet received an executed copy of the license agreement with the property owners' signatures or the required permit payment of$115.00. Alternatives: Alternative#1: Motion to adopt Resolution#23-308 approving a Right-of-Way Permit for a private ice rink on Krypton Street North of 157th Avenue Northwest, subject to the property owners signing the new Right-of-Way License Agreement that includes the following conditions; 1. That the Permit is valid until April 19,2024, at which time all elements of the ice rink must be removed from Krypton Street. 2. That the ice rink is open and accessible to anyone wishing to use it. 3. That the Owners will maintain insurance across the rink during the duration that it is in place. 4. That the Owners will apply annually for a new permit and provide current insurance and sign a right-of-way license agreement before the rink is constructed. 5. That if the Owners fail to adhere to any of the above conditions,the City of Ramsey will invoice the Owners for any costs associated with removal of the rink. Funding Source: No funding is required relative to this request. City costs are limited to the time it took staff and the City Attorney to review and process the request, including preparing and reviewing the License Agreement. Recommendation: Staff recommends approving Alternative#1 once the property owners execute the license agreement and pay for the right-of-way permit.
