Vacation of a segment of Sommerville Street Right-of-Way |
| | | | | | | | Policy/Action Requested:
Recommend adoption of Resolution R2024-005, a resolution approving the vacation of a certain segment of Sommerville Street Public Right-of-Way. |
| | | | | | | | Recommendation:
Approve the action requested. |
| | | | | | | | Discussion:
The City of Shakopee has requested vacation of Sommerville Street Public Right-of-Way which would allow for the city to consolidate property associated with the River City Center (RCC). Presently, there is a segment of Sommerville, located north of 1st Avenue and south of the Highway 101 that is still dedicated public right-of-way but is actually used as a driveway for the RCC (see attached site aerial). The EDA and the city, as owners of the RCC and the land around the building, would like to clean up some of the outstanding properties and once completed, replat the property into a single legal parcel. Eventually the EDA and the CDA will create two condominium units with the land parcel as common area, controlled by the EDA.
A public hearing is set for the Tuesday, January 16, 2024 City Council meeting. Support by the Planning Commission of this request is recommended by City staff, with that recommendation forwarded to the City Council for inclusion in their January 16th action.
Staff does not foresee any issues with this vacation. If approved, staff will conduct a title search and provide any necessary easements, and record the appropriate Plat/RLS for this property.
