A RESOLUTION APPROVING VACATION OF A EXISTING DRAINAGE AND
UTILITY EASEMENTS PLATTED WITHIN KITTREDGE CROSSINGS 6TH ADDITION.
WHEREAS, the City of Otsego approved a final plat of Kittredge Crossings 6th
Addition; and,
WHEREAS, the Kittredge Crossings 6th Addition final plat included dedication to
the City of drainage and utility easements shown by Exhibit A; and,
WHEREAS, Shelard Capital Investments, Inc. has proposed to replat the area
shown on Exhibit A with single family lots and submitted a preliminary plat to be known
as Kittredge Crossings 10th Addition; and,
WHEREAS, the preliminary plat of Kittredge Crossings 10th Addition would
establish those drainage and utility easements required by Section 21-7-15 of the
Subdivision Ordinance based on the design of the preliminary plat; and,
WHEREAS, the easements shown on the Kittredge Crossings 10th Addition
preliminary plat would supersede and make unnecessary those drainage and utility
easements previously dedicated with the Kittredge Crossings 6th Addition final plat; and,
WHEREAS, Shelard Capital Investments, Inc. has applied for vacation of the
drainage and utility easements dedicated with the Kittredge Crossings 6th Addition final
plat; and,
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a public hearing at their regular
meeting on 5 March 2012 to consider the vacation, preceded by required published and
mailed legal notice; and,
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission heard all parties interested therein and
closed the public hearing; and,
WHEREAS, the drainage and utility easements dedicated with the Kittredge
Crossings 6th Addition final plat serve no useful public purpose upon concurrent
recording of a final plat for Kittredge Crossings 10th Addition; and,
WHEREAS, the City Council having considered all information received related
to the proposed vacation and easement dedication finds that vacating a portion of the
existing right-of-way as shown on Exhibit A would be in the public interest; and,
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Otsego
that Otsego hereby orders:
