Title

RESOLUTION ACCEPTING CONVEYANCE OF AN EASEMENT FROM THE WESTERN LAKE SUPERIOR SANITARY DISTRICT FOR RIDGEVIEW ROAD.

 

Body

CITY PROPOSAL:

                     RESOLVED, that the proper city officials are hereby authorized to accept the conveyance of an easement for public roadway and utility purposes substantially in the form attached hereto, from the sanitary board of the Western Lake Superior Sanitary District, a non-profit and political corporation organized under the laws of the state of Minnesota (a/k/a the Western Lake Superior Sanitary District, a public corporation and political subdivision of the state of Minnesota) at no cost to the city.

 

Statement of Purpose

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE:  The purpose of this resolution is to accept the donation of an easement from the Western Lake Superior Sanitary District to facilitate reconditioning and reconstruction of an existing road known as Ridgeview Road.

The road will provide a secondary access road to the Minnesota Air National Guard (“MnANG”) base in Duluth.  The city will receive a combination of funds provided by the MnANG and federal highway administration funds.  The project funds will provide for reconditioning and reconstruction of this roadway to a surface capable of carrying higher volumes of traffic.  In order to be able to use the federal funds, the roadway must be on a “public right-of-way.”
