| BACKGROUND: |
Ordinance first reading 6/0
The City of Gillette is sponsoring a vacate request to remove unnecessary water and sanitary sewer easements from 21 lots contained within two (2) plats in Northland Village Subdivision. The City plans to sponsor other vacate requests in the future to remove all the unnecessary water and sanitary sewer easements in the Northland Village Subdivision.
The property is located just north of Kluver Drive in the northeast quadrant of the City. The property was once a Mobile Home Park, however it was converted into a Mobile Home Subdivision in 1996 to allow for individual ownership of the lots. An Improvement District was formed as part of a City project to upgrade the infrastructure and re-locate the water and sewer services. The easements were once needed for water and sanitary sewer services, however the easements are no longer necessary as the water and sanitary sewer services have been re-located to the street.
According to the City of Gillette Subdivision Regulations, the City may request to vacate a public easement, upon due consideration of its functionality and by providing the property owner notification. All property owners have been notified of this project.
By vacating the easements, the property owners will have more buildable area and flexibility for the future construction of garages, additions, decks, home replacements, etc., as permanent structures are not allowed in easements. The City is providing this vacate request as a service to the property owners. All City Divisions and private utility companies have been notified and no comments have been received regarding this case. |
