Title:
Adopt Ordinance for Sale of City Owned Property in Auditor's Subdivision Number 27; Case of City of Ramsey and Cross of Hope Lutheran Church
Background:
At the January 25, 2011 regular City Council meeting, the Cross of Hope Addition final plat was approved, contingent upon several items, including the sale of City-owned land to Cross of Hope Lutheran Church. The parcel, which is approximately 0.45 acres (fifty [50] feet wide by 394 feet long), was originally deeded to the City in 1983 for a future service road as a requirement of the church's original site plan approval. A service road is no longer considered necessary along 179th Lane. Additionally, the Plat does dedicate sufficient drainage and utility easement and right of way to satisfy City Code subdivision design standards and Anoka County standards for right of way width.
A sketch showing the City-owned parcel referenced above is attached.
Observations:
The ordinance was introduced at the February 8, 2011 City Council meeting and is now eligible for adoption. In addition, the Council has already acted on the request to convey a portion of permanent road easement to the property owner on the adjacent parcel as requested by the Applicant. Tonight's request is to convey the portion held in fee title by the City to the Applicant.
Recommendation:
It appears that the fifty (50) foot parcel was conveyed to the City as a requirement of site plan approval in the early 1980s. Considering this, City Staff recommends adopting the ordinance authorizing the sale of real property (the 50 foot parcel) for $1.00 and other good and valuable consideration. Staff further recommends that the City’s permanent easement be conveyed to the Church upon filing of the Plat which will dedicate the requisite right of way for 179th Lane NW.
Funding Source:
All costs associated with reviewing the application are the responsibility of the Applicant.
Council Action:
Motion to waive the reading of the ordinance per City Charter AND adopt Ordinance #11-___ authorizing the sale of property legally described on attached Exhibit A, contingent upon recording of Cross of Hope Addition plat.
