Howard R, Green Qompany <br /> June 13, 2002 <br /> File: 815640Jo0045 <br /> <br />Item <br /> <br />#4.7. <br /> <br />The Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />City of Elk River <br />13065 Orono Parkway <br />Elk River, MN 55330 <br /> <br />RE: <br /> <br />KIRKEIDE SE'DTLEMENT AGREEMENT <br />ZANE AVENUE IMPROVEMENTS <br /> <br />Dear Council Members: <br /> <br />Attached is a copy of the settlement agreement negotiated by Howard Roston with Mr. Kirkeide <br />for the acquisition of a small piece of his property for the Zane Avenue Improvements. Briefly, <br />the terms of the settlement agreement are as follows: <br /> <br />· There will be no payment for the easement. <br />· There will be no assessment to Mr. Kirkeide's property for any of the improvements on <br /> Zane Avenue. <br />· There will be no requirement that Mr. Kirkeide hook up to the sanitary sewer and water. <br />· Mr. Kirkeide's fence and gate around the perimeter of his property will temporarily be <br /> relocated during construction and then permanently relocated at the end of construction. <br />· There will be three six-foot Colorado or Black Hills Spruce trees planted on Mr. <br /> Kirdeide's property for every Oak tree that is removed due to construction. All other <br /> species of trees will be replaced at a ratio of one Colorado or Black Hills Spruce tree for <br /> each tree removed. <br />· Mr. Kirkeide's driveway will be hard-surfaced for approximately 70 feet from the new <br /> Zane Avenue curb line. <br /> <br />You will note that only Mr. Kirkeide has signed the settlement agreement. Item J in the <br />settlement agreement allows Mr. Kirkeide to sign the agreement on behalf of his wife. The <br />actual easement document has been given to Mr. Kirkeide, and he is prepared to execute the <br />easement document once the City has executed the settlement agreement and provided a copy <br />of the agreement to him. We would recommend that the City accept the settlement agreement <br />and direct the City Administrator to execute it on behalf of the City. <br /> <br />If you have any questions regarding this issue, I will be in attendance at your June 17, 2002, <br />City Council meeting. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br />Howard R.
