Re: The Arbors — Vacation of Trail Easement
Dear Mr. Generous:
Pulte Homes recently purchased 16 lots located within The Arbors subdivision. These lots are
Lots 1 -3, 5 -14 Block 1 and Lots 1, 2, & 4, Block 2. Upon reviewing the title information
associated with these lots it was discovered that a trail easement was recorded against Lots 1, 8,
9, 10, 11, 12 & 14, Block 1.
After discussing the purpose of this trail with Todd Hoffman, Park and Recreation Director for
the City of Chanhassen, it was determined that the trail easement is no longer required. We are
therefore requesting the vacation of this easement to clean up the property records for the
affected lots.
Enclosed is an application requesting the vacation of the trail easement along with a check in the
amount of $300 to cover the required application fee.
If you have any questions or require additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me
at 952- 912 -5465 or jason.wedel@pultegroup.com.
Sincerely,
Pulte Homes of Minnesota
