Summary

Rosemount City Council voted 5–0 to adopt a resolution vacating internal drainage and utility easements on Lots 2–4 in the Biscayne Business Park, conditioned on dedication of new perimeter easements and final stormwater design review by the city engineer.

Rosemount — The City Council on Feb. 17 approved an easement-vacation resolution to allow an automotive-repair development to consolidate three parcels in the Biscayne Business Park.

Planning staff presented the request from Kamal Omar and Apro Development Inc. to vacate existing internal drainage and utility easements across Lots 2–4 and to replace them with new perimeter drainage and utility easements. Mr. Keenberger said the applicant’s plan shows remaking the existing ponds into a single pond along the southern boundary and that the city engineer must review the final stormwater design.

“There is a recommended motion before you,” Mr. Keenberger said during the public hearing presentation.

The council opened the public hearing, received no public comment and moved to close the hearing. Councilor Tyson moved and Councilor Esler seconded the resolution to approve vacation of the drainage and utility easements on Lots 2–4 in the Biscayne Business Park, subject to dedication of the new on-site drainage and utility easements.

A roll-call vote recorded ayes from council members Klimpel, Wiesenfeld, Tyson, Reske and Esler; the motion passed 5–0.

What the council required: dedication of the new drainage and utility easements prior to any grading or building permit approval and city-engineer sign-off on the final stormwater pond design. Staff said those conditions are standard practice for lot consolidations and new developments.
