<br /> <br />13065 Orono Parkway <br />Elk River, MN 55330 <br /> <br />October 31, 2005 <br /> <br />File: 226-022P <br /> <br />Mr. Scott Harlicker <br />Senior Planner <br />City of Elk River <br />13065 Orono Parkway <br />Elk River, MN 55330 <br /> <br />RE: PARRISHAVENUERIGHf-OF-WAYVACATION <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Harlicker: <br /> <br />As requested, I have reviewed the legal description for the proposed right-of-way vacation <br />along the west side of Parrish Avenue adjacent to the Bluff Block development. This <br />proposed right-of-way vacation was initiated by the City of Elk River in conjunction with the <br />MetroPlains development of the Bluff Block. The approved building plan has underground <br />parking which extends easterly into the right-of-way proposed to be vacated. The area in <br />question is approximately .12 acres and is an old site triangle area from the original <br />construction of Trunk Highway 10. The proposed vacation will have no affect on the <br />operation of Main Street or Parrish Avenue. The small utilities that are located in this right- <br />of-way would need to be relocated regardless, because of the underground parking <br />component of the Bluff Block development. <br /> <br />I would recommend approval of the proposed vacation so that the area vacated can be <br />attached to the Bluff Block. This will allow for the underground parking to be built within <br />the Bluff Block lot. If you have any questions regarding this issue, please call. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br /> <br />T2~ <br /> <br />City Engineer <br /> <br />Phone: 763.635.1000 <br />Fax: 763.635.1090 <br />S:\PLANNING\Case Files\2005\EV 05-10 Parrish ROW\10 31 05 engr's memo.doc <br />www.cLelk-river.mn.us <br />
