EASEMENT E-1718-37: CONSIDERATION OF ACCEPTANCE OF A PUBLIC SIDEWALK EASEMENT DONATED BY PREMIERE LAND HOLDINGS, L.L.C. FOR UNIVERSITY NORTH PARK PROFESSIONAL CENTER, LOT 5, BLOCK 1.

Body

BACKGROUND:  The final plat for University North Park Professional Center, a Planned Unit Development (PUD) was filed of record with the Cleveland County Clerk on October 28, 2015.  The property is located one fourth of a mile south of Tecumseh Road on the east side of 24^th Avenue N.W. The property is occupied by a new professional office building. With the recent installation of a ten-foot wide sidewalk, a portion of the sidewalk is located outside the public right-of-way.  The property owners have donated a public sidewalk easement for the sidewalk that is located outside of the public right-of-way.  

DISCUSSION:  Public sidewalk improvements have been installed as part of the commercial lot.  To meet the sidewalk design and width, a portion of the public sidewalk was placed on private property.  The City Attorney’s Office has reviewed the easement as to form.

RECOMMENDATION:  Based upon the above information, it is the recommendation of staff that Easement E-1718-37 be approved.
