Plan commission approves CSM to clear property encroachment for Ruth Perkins
Summary
The Plan Commission approved a certified survey map to resolve a garage encroachment affecting Ruth Perkins’ property at 508 East Conant Street by adjusting the adjacent rear lot line and conveying a portion of alley to the adjoining parcel.
The Plan Commission approved a certified survey map (CSM) to resolve a boundary encroachment affecting Ruth Perkins’ property at 508 East Conant Street.
Perkins told the commission during public comment that a garage encroachment on the rear boundary has prevented buyers from obtaining a mortgage. Staff described the revision as effectively conveying a half‑alley piece to the adjoining property owned by Richard Lynn so that the garage would be entirely on Lynn’s parcel. City staff reviewed the CSM and recommended approval, and the commission approved the map.
Why it matters: The CSM clears a title issue that had stalled a pending sale, according to Perkins, and staff said the change would clean up an old configuration where an alley had been planned but not used.
Motion and outcome: A motion to approve the CSM was made and seconded; the roll call recorded Craig — aye; Gunderson — aye; Paul — aye; Schneider — aye. The motion carried and staff noted time was of the essence because the sale closing was imminent.
