7. 1. CC Regular Session New Meeting Date: 09/10/2024 Primary Strategic Plan Initiative: Promote economic growth and development. Title: PUBLIC HEARING: Adopt Resolution#24-230 Vacating all Existing, Platted Drainage and Utility Easements on the Property Located Between Rhinestone Street, Traprock Street,East Ramsey Parkway, and 146th Avenue (Project No. 24-117)/Case of COR at Ramsey,LLC Purpose/Background: The City has received a Land Use Application from COR at Ramsey, LLC (the "Applicant") for consideration of a Preliminary Plat, Final Plat, and Easement Vacation for Parkside Townhomes. The project is located on the block situated between Rhinestone Street, East Ramsey Parkway, Traprock Street, and 146th Avenue (the "Subject Property"). On this same agenda is a separate case addressing the Preliminary Plat and Final Plat. This case and Public Hearing is specific to the requested Easement Vacation. Notification: A notification was posted in the July 26, 2024,Anoka Union Herald and emailed notices were sent to the private utility companies operating in Ramsey. Furthermore,property owners within 350 feet of the Subject Property were mailed a notice of the Public Hearing for the easement vacation as well. Time Frame/Observations/Alternatives: The Subj ect Property was originally platted in the mid-2000s as Ramsey Town Center 7th Addition. That plat dedicated drainage and utility easements across portions of the Subject Property. The new plat, Parkside Townhomes, slightly adjusts the property boundaries to accommodate a different building footprint than what had been proposed almost twenty(20)years ago. New drainage and utility easements will be dedicated where required and needed with the recording of the Parkside Townhomes Final Plat. Notification of the proposed easement vacation has been sent to all utility companies that operate in Ramsey. As of the writing of this case,we have received responses from Centerpoint Energy and Comcast,both stating that they have no objections to the vacation, as they have no infrastructure within the existing easements currently. Funding Source: The Applicant is responsible for all costs associated with this request. Recommendation: Staff recommends vacating all existing drainage and utility easements on the Subject Property Outcome/Action: Motion to adopt Resolution#24-230 vacating all existing drainage and utility easements on the Subject Property.
