Public Hearing for Ordinance 1069 Vacating a Drainage and Utility Easement within 1280 Bollenbacher Drive.

 

Body

Action Requested:                     

The Northfield City Council holds a public hearing for Ordinance 1069 vacating a drainage and utility easements within 1280 Bollenbacher Drive (Lot 1, Block 2 Cannon Commercial Center).

 

Summary Report:

As part of the sale of the existing ice arena property, there is a utility easement that cuts across the southern portion of the property. This easement was previously needed when the City had a sanitary sewer lift station, however, the lift station was removed in 2010 and therefore the easement is no longer needed.

 

The public hearing notice was published in the Northfield News on Wednesday, October 2, 2024. Public hearing notices were mailed to property owners within 350’ of 1280 Bollenbacher Dr. on October 3, 2024. A copy of the public hearing mailing and location map are attached.
