Discussion:

Bryce Huemoeller of Huemoeller, Gontarek & Cheskis, PLC on behalf of the property owner, Brambilla Family Limited Liability Limited Partnership No 1, is requesting a vacation of a sanitary sewer easement on property at 550 Valley Park Drive. The easement is 35 feet wide and runs west to east parallel to the north property line on this 10.13 acre parcel. The easement was established by Quit Claim Deed dated August 10, 1973, filed August 22, 1973 as document T11939, in favor of The Metropolitan Sewer District Board. The easement was transferred initially to the Metropolitan Council and subsequently to the City of Shakopee by Agreement, dated January 11, 2007, as amended by Agreement, dated May 25, 2012.

Per the applicant, allowing the subject easement to remain constitutes a title defect which is required to be completed to finalize a pending sale of the property. 

The attached Resolution R2024-002 sets a public hearing date of Tuesday, January 16, 2024, to consider the vacation of the public sanitary sewer easement. On that date, comments from staff members and utilities, as well as a recommendation from the Planning Commission, will be presented to the City Council for consideration. The Planning Commission will consider the request at its January 4, 2024 meeting.
