Overview
Approximately two years ago, the City of Elk River completed a storm sewer
project which extended the storm sewer from Main Street and Evans Avenue
intersection along Main Street, then southerly through Meadow Park
Subdivision, Earl Hohlen property and UPA. This project basically included
abandonment of a segment of County Ditch No. 10 with the replacement of
the storm sewer system. The project required obtaining drainage and utility
easements through the existing properties in order to construct the storm
sewer pipe. With the redefined drainage and utility easements, the original
drainage and utility easements which followed the County Ditch No. 10
alignment are no longer necessary.
Development of Parcel No. I
The owner of Parcel No. 1 as described on the attached exhibits has
approached the City to develop the parcel with the construction of an office
building. In order to proceed forward with this request, the easement which
traverses the northern third of the property will need to be vacated.

Recommendation

certain easements as described on the attached Exhibits A and B.
