A review of the title work indicates that <br />property south of the cartway had been sold with the cart-way in retainage by the original <br />owner at that time. It appears that the cartway came into existence in 1940 under the town <br />of Elk River. <br /> <br />The owner of the NAPA store is interested in acquiring the cartway in order to allow for an <br />expansion of the store. It is likely, however, that the cartway will return to the ownership of <br />Mr. Powell, the adjacent property owner of Outlot B of Mississippi Ridge and the NAPA <br />owner will be required to acquire the cartway from Mr. Powell. <br /> <br />It is clear that the cartway serves no further public purpose. It would therefore be <br />appropriate to vacate the cartway. <br /> <br />Recommendation <br /> <br />Staff recommends that the City Council approve Resolution No. 03- <br />cartway. <br /> <br />, vacating the <br /> <br />S:\PLANNING\Case Files\2003\EV 03-05 NAPA CARTWAYM0-20 cc memo.doc <br /> <br /> <br />
