Title
INITIATE VACATION OF DRAINAGE EASEMENTS AND UTILITY AND DRAINAGE EASEMENTS AND ORDER PUBLIC HEARING FOR OUTLOT B, NORTH OAKS PONDS EAST, AND OUTLOT A, NORTH OAKS PONDS EAST 2ND, VACATION NO. V17-09
Background
This is a City initiated vacation of drainage and utility and drainage easements. One of the permit requirements for the open space project is to grant a conservation easement over the area in the project. The conservation easement language however conflicts with existing easements that were platted with the original property. This vacation will remove the underlying easements and a new document will dedicate a conservation easement over them.
