Statement of Purpose
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE: This resolution authorizes the acceptance of a permanent easement for street and utility purposes from Christine A. King, Trustee of the Chris King Revocable Trust Under Agreement Dated November 1, 2018 (also known as the Christine A. King Revocable Trust Under Agreement dated November 1, 2018) and Christine A. King, Trustee of the Dan King Revocable Trust Under Agreement dated November 1, 2018 (also known as the Residuary Trust Under the Dan King Revocable Trust Under Agreement Dated November 1, 2018) over, under, and across certain property in the Lincoln Park neighborhood, at no cost to the city.
Between 2026-2028, the city will be completing a reconstruction of Superior Street from Carlton Street to West Michigan Street (the “Project”). The new street will be a bituminous road with curb and gutter. ADA compliant sidewalks, multi-use trails, improved street lighting and better green space will also be added to the corridor. All watermains and storm sewer will be replaced as part of the Project.
The majority of the Project will be completed within existing right-of-way, but there are a few areas where elements of the Project are designed outside of the existing right-of-way. The acceptance of this easement allows: (i) the city to complete the Project, (ii) for public use of reconstructed Superior St. and related elements, and (iii) for provision of public utilities.
A map depicting the easement area is attached as part of Exhibit A to Exhibit 1.
