| Synopsis: |
Approval of the attached quitclaim deed would terminate
the City's interest in several unoccupied or vacated sewer and electric utility
easements within the Billings Ranch Subdivision. With the development of
the Billings Ranch Subdivision the utilities that formerly occupied these
easements have been reconstructed and relocated onto public rights of way
or within new easements within the subdivision. The locations of the easements
to be terminated are shown on the attached map. All affected utilities have
been contacted and have indicated no objection to the termination of this
easement. |
| Recommendation: |
It is recommended that the Council terminate the City's
interest in the six utility easements located within the platted boundaries
of the Billings Ranch Subdivision and authorize the Mayor's signature on
the attached quitclaim deed. |
| Fiscal Impact: |
None. |
| Background: |
The following easements have been created over the past 80 years to support
City electrical and sewer utilities over the Billings property located west
of Nevada Street and north of N. Main Street:

Public Utility Easement along the west boundary of Lot 54 created on
the plat of the Billings Ranch Subdivision. This easement is reportedly unused. |

Electric and Utility easements along the easterly portion on the subdivision
per documents numbers 66-10796, 79-23079 and 84-00630. These three easements
affect lots 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71 and 72. The overhead power lines
which previously occupied these easements have been placed underground into
the newly created easements within the subdivision, |
| 3. |
Two sanitary sewer easements as described in documents recorded in Volume
91 Page 514 and Volume 208 Page 379. These two easements affect lots 10,
24, 26, 27, 30, 31, 32, 33, and 34 of the Billings Ranch Subdivision. The
sanitary sewer lines, which previously occupied these easements have been
relocated onto newly created easements and rights of way. |
