RESOLUTION ACCEPTING A PERMANENT EASEMENT FOR STREET AND UTILITY PURPOSES FROM ST. LOUIS COUNTY ON BEHALF OF THE STATE OF MINNESOTA OVER, UNDER, AND ACROSS PROPERTY LOCATED IN THE DULUTH HEIGHTS NEIGHBORHOOD FOR $150.

 

Body

CITY PROPOSAL:

RESOLVED, that the proper city officials are hereby authorized to accept, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit A, from the County of St. Louis, on behalf of the State of Minnesota, a perpetual easement for street and utility purposes over, under, and across the following described real property located in St. Louis County, Minnesota for $150.00:

 

Westerly 30 feet of Lots 25, 27, and 29, Block 2, DULUTH HEIGHTS SIXTH DIVISION,

according to the recorded plat thereof. 

 

Statement of Purpose

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE:  This resolution authorizes the acceptance of a permanent easement for street and utility purposes from County of St. Louis, on behalf of the State of Minnesota over, under, and across tax-forfeited property located in the Duluth Heights neighborhood for $150.00.  A portion of the existing Swan Lake Road that is maintained by the City and used by the public does not have an easement over it, and the acceptance of this easement cures the City’s title issue.
