Mayor and City Council
Keith R. Marvin, P.E., Civil Engineer
January 11, 2005
Consider approval of an ordinance abandoning a sanitary sewer easement in
Hidden Valley Addition; and authorizing the Mayor to sign.
This abandonment request is for a sanitary sewer easement within the Hidden Valley subdivision
which was approved by City Council during the March 9, 2004 Council Meeting.
The developer of this property is relocating a portion of the existing sanitary sewer line in order
to create mom usable space on two lots within the subdivision. The developer dedicated
approximately 74,275 square feet of public right-of-way and 10,050 square feet of new utility
easement with the Hidden Valley Addition plat. Also, the developer, at his expense, is
constructing a new sewer line within the dedicated public right-of-way and a portion of the new
utility easement.
With this relocation, the city no longer has a need for the existing easement. The easement was
dedicated to the city in 1981 for the sole purpose of the sanitary sewer line. The easement to be
abandoned contains approximately 20,650 square feet of land.
Staff recommends approval of this agenda item. The value of the right-of-way and easement
dedicated by the developer far exceeds the value of the easement to be abandoned. Therefore,
the city is not requesting any compensation for this abandonment.
Staff will be available to answer any questions at the Council meeting.
