Since the last Council meeting, there are two remaining parcels which require right-of-entries. One of these parcels also require a permanent easement. The attached letter from Mrs. Lucille Fischer does summarize the concerns of one of the remaining parcels and the residents on the south side of 145t� Street between Chianti and Chili Avenues. The sidewalk or bike trail on this segment of 145th Street has been maintained in the winter time by the City since its installation many years ago. These residents are requesting that the City continue this maintenance of the newly proposed sidewalk. One option which may be available and is somewhat agreeable to the residents is that the City would maintain it for the next ten (10) years, at which time the snow removal maintenance would become the responsibility of the homeowners. The maintenance of the 5' sidewalk does present some concerns to the Public Works Department, in that the City does not have a machine which could plow less than a 6' wide sidewalk. Staff believes that the one last right-of-entry needed on this side of 145th Street will sign the right-of-entry if the Council would approve such an arrangement. The other remaining parcel is on the north side of 145th Street. The resident in question has sold the house in the past 6 months and believes that by not signing a right-of-entry they will not be responsible for the payment of the assessments. We have talked to the resident and recommended that he contact legal counsel and assured him that the pending assessment would be identified by a Title Company to be the existing homeowners responsibility no matter if the right-of-entry was granted or not. At the time of this writing, these are the two remaining parcels which are needed. Hopefully 6y Tuesday night with further negotiations with the residents, Council will not have to take the proposed condemnation action and this agenda item can be eliminated. RECOMMENDED ACTION: MOTION TO ADOPT A RESOLUTION DIRECTING CONDEMNATION OF LANDS NEEDED TO ALLOW THE REPLACEMENT OF UTILITY SERVICES TO CERTAIN PROPERTIES IN ROSEMOUNT. COUNCIL ACTION: � � �p � .� � � . . May 7, 1994 City of Rosemount City Hall Rosemount, MN 55068 Attn: Bud Osmundson To Whom it May Concern: My name is Lucille K. Fischer and I live at 145th St. W. here in Rosemount. I have written to you folks before. All the neighbors living on our street were very mueh opposed to a boulevard for this block. We did not win this battle. When I wrote before, I told you that most of us on this street are old and unable to clean a sidewalk past our homes . I also said you should furnish us with names of anyone who would be willing to keep our sidewalks clean. Two out of 5 homes are vacant in the winter month� so we would have to make arrangements before we leave in October. We want to request that the City of Rosemount continue cleaning our sidewalks like they have been cleaning the bike trail . Some years ago I was given the option of hading sidewalk installed or a bike trail and I opted for the bike trail . The bike trail has been m,aintained by the city and I have had no information that angone fell into the street or had an accident on account of the bike trail abutting the curb • without a boulevard which you seem to think is a safety factor. We maintain that a boulevard is only wher� sand and salt is continually plowed onto it from the snow plow clearing the street. Z think the salt and sand issue is another moot point. When we came back this spring, we found loads of sand put on the lawn. It is a mixture of sancl and salt so cannot be put on any other area of our y�ard. So now what do we do with it? I know this year it will be shoveled back into the street once it is torn up. This is an appeal to have our sidewalks maintained by the City of Rosemount. Thank you for this consideration. Sincerely yours , � ` e�e� � ��,�- �-�....� Lucille K.
