Common Council Report

Meeting Date: April 17, 2007

Item No.:        

Recommendation:  That the Common Council adopt Resolution No. 10753-041707 authorizing the vacation of an existing storm drainage easement adjacent to the east property line of 520 E. Marquette Avenue (Tax Key No. 781-0175) (1^st Aldermanic District).

Background:  There are two storm drainage easements along the east property line of 520 E. Marquette Avenue.  The original storm drainage easement was 10’ wide along the entire east property line and was part of the original subdivision plat for Sleepy Hollow Addition No. 2.  The other easement (overlay easement) was recorded with the Milwaukee County Register of Deeds on October 30, 1990 as Document No. 6431445, on Reel 2506 as Images 31 to 33, inclusive, and is also along the east property line.  The overlay easement is no longer necessary given the storm water plan for the Mahn Court Development.

The most recent easement will be vacated while the original storm drainage easement will remain.

Fiscal Impact:  None.
