Memo tothe Mayorand City Council/AS 00-3 & EV 00-3 May 10,2000 Page 3 Easement Vacation The applicant is requesting a vacation of two easement areas, one on proposed lot (see attached drawing). The drainage easement on Parcel A is located adjacent to Irving Street and encompasses an area 80 x 200 feet. This is the area where a home would likely be constructed, as it is on the highest part of the lot. The drainage easement on Parcel B is located in the center of the lot, however, as indicated in the City Engineer's memo, not enough information was submitted to determine if the easement could be vacated at this time. There is an area 160 x 160 feet outside of the easement that provides adequate space for the construction of both a home and a septic system. A condition of the easement vacation should be that a thorough investigation of the easement area occur prior to the vacation occurring. The engineering staff will draft the legal descriptions for the easement vacation. Additional drainage easements will be required as noted earlier in the staff report. Recommendation Staff recommends that the City Council approve AS 00-3 and EV 00-3 with the following conditions: THAT DRAINAGE AND UTILITY EASEMENTS BE GRANTED TO THE CITY, TEN FOOT INSIDE THE REAR AND SIDE PROPERTY LINES AND FIVE INSIDE THE SIDE PROPERTY LINES, FOR BOTH PARCELS PRIOR TO RECORDING THE SUBDIVISION WITH THE COUNTY. THAT PAYMENT OF SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT FEE IN THE AMOUNT REQUIRED BY THE CITY BE PAID PRIOR TO RECORDING THE SUBDIVISION WITH THE COUNTY. THAT SOIL BORING INFORMATION BE SUBMITTED PRIOR TO RECORDING THE SUBDIVISION WITH THE COUNTY. THE EASEMENT VACATION IS CONDITIONED UPON A THOROUGH REVIEW OF THE SITE BY STAFF. THE LEGAL DESCRIPTIONS OF THE AREA(S) TO BE VACATED SHALL BE DRAFTED BY CITY STAFF. 5. THAT ALL COMMENTS FROM THE CITY ENGINEER BE ADDRESSED.
