Title
ACCEPTANCE OF A 10-FOOT DRAINAGE EASEMENT DEED FOR 617 PALM TRAIL
Body
Recommended Action:
Recommendation
Motion to Approve and accept a 10-foot drainage easement deed at 617 Palm Trail.
Body
Background:
Consider Acceptance of a 10-foot drainage easement deed at 617 Palm Trail.
In November 2015, the applicant (Azure Palm Trail Preserve, LLC.) submitted building permit #15-160693 to construct a single family residence at 617 Palm Trail. This property is located west of South of George Bush Blvd. on Palm Trail on the east side of the roadway.
Upon engineering review of the application submitted, a city owned drainage pipe was discovered (per survey attached) without an easement. This drainage pipe is in direct conflict with the proposed single family construction project. As part of an agreement with city staff and the applicant, a new 10 foot easement has been established per sketch of description “Exhibit A”. The abandonment and relocation of the drainage pipe has been coordinated between city staff with the approval of the applicant at a later date to be determined.
City Attorney Review:
Approved as to form and legal sufficiency.
Timing of Request:
The timing of this request is of high importance in order for customer to obtain the Certificate of Occupancy.
