A letter was received from Gene Coulter stating he has no objection to the

The City Attorney's office assumed that the work involved would be at the expense
of the City as it was obtaining an easement from Mr. Pauly without cost and was
also completing an abortive vacation proceeding taken by the Chanhassen TOwn
Board in 1962. He does not believe that the abutting property owners would be
inclined to pay anything for this vacation as they already have the benefit
of the use of the land because the road has been abandoned. The road vacation
will not in any way impair access to the Coulter, Bongard, williams easement.
The vacation would take the form of a conveyance that the separate parcels by
Qui t Claim Deed because the fee title is held of record in the City. IDt 22 was
not a dedicated platted street and the usual vacation proceedings are not
applicable. Any conveyance would reserve to the City an easement for utility
purposes over the whole of the conveyed land. The City Attorney recommended an
addi tion of a restriction that the tracts would be maintained as open space in
perpetui ty. Costs incUrred for this vacation would aITOunt to approximately
$200.00.
