Committee accepts Lafayette subdivision improvements, excludes utility laterals outside ROW
Summary
The Improvement and Services Committee on Oct. 29 recommended the city accept dedication of completed Lafayette subdivision street and utility improvements from the Thomas J. and Mary K. Safener Trust of 1996, with the exception of sanitary, storm and water laterals lying outside the dedicated right of way.
The Green Bay Improvement and Services Committee voted Oct. 29 to accept dedication of public improvements in the Lafayette subdivision, a three‑lot certified survey map created from a larger parcel, after staff reported the construction was complete.
Public Works staff said the work consisted of streets and utilities constructed as part of a small three‑lot subdivision on the city's far southwest side and recommended the city accept dedication of the improvements described in the developer's agreement and approved plans, excluding sanitary and storm sewer laterals and water laterals lying outside the dedicated right of way. The request was presented on behalf of the Thomas J. and Mary K. Safener Trust of 1996 by Tanner Wojcick.
The committee's motion to approve the dedication was made by Alder Gerber and seconded by Alder DeLay; the motion carried unanimously.
Staff said the parent parcel had been split into two residential lots and a larger remainder lot for a single home and that the constructed public improvements met the conditions for dedication except for the lateral utilities that remain private where they fall outside the dedicated right of way. The developer's agreement and approved plans were cited in staff recommendations; the agreement date and specific plan references were not specified in the meeting record.
By accepting the dedication, the city will assume ownership and ongoing maintenance responsibility for the dedicated streets and utilities within the dedicated right of way. The committee's action is a recommendation to the Common Council, which will consider final action at its Nov. 11 meeting.
