Title
ACCEPT TRANSFER OF LAND FROM THE BLAINE EDA, OUTLOT A, MEADOWS OF RICE CREEK
Background
The Meadows of Rice Creek subdivision was platted in 1997. As part of the plat the developer dedicated land in lieu of park dedication. The park is identified as Xylite Park. For some reason the developer deeded a portion of the park to the Blaine EDA rather than the City of Blaine. The error was recently discovered and the proposed action transfers the land from the Blaine EDA to the City of Blaine. The lot is classified by ordinance in the city code as a park.
