A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Elk River Granting a Petition
to Vacate a Public Street
WHEREAS, a petition has been made by the adjacent property owners to vacate a portion
of the public street originally platted as Fourth Street (Depot Street), as described in
Exhibit A attached hereto; and,
WHEREAS, a public hearing on said petition was held on October 19, 2020, before the
City Council of the City of Elk River after published and posted notice had been given, and
all persons interested were given an opportunity to be heard at the public hearing.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Elk
River, Minnesota, as follows:
1. The petition to vacate a portion of the public street originally platted as Fourth Street
(Depot Street), as described in Exhibit A, is hereby granted, based upon the
following Findings of Fact:
A. Minnesota Statutes, Section 412.851, allows for the vacation of a public street
if it appears in the interest of the public to do so.
B. The Council finds that it is in the interest of the public to vacate a portion of
the public street described in Exhibit A, because:
(1) This portion of the public street has never been improved or
maintained by the city, not has it been open for or used by the public;
and
(2) Vacation of this portion of the street will facilitate development of
the adjacent property by the city's municipal utility.
2. Vacation of the public street described in Exhibit A shall be effective at the time of
recording of the necessary documents.
Passed and adopted this 19th day of October 2020.
