Public Hearing - May 25, 1982
The petitioner, Saint Paul Structural Steel Compar�y, asks that the vacation
be granted as that part of York Avenue and the aforementioned alley are un-
suitable and inconvenient for public travel. It would better serve the
public interest if this va.cation was granted and the property placed on the
tax rolls.
The area to be vacated is described as follaws: The street is 60' by 165'

of 1�+,542.5 square feet. The area is zoned I-1 (Industrial).
The Department of Public Works reports that York Avenue is an improved dead-
end street, with an existing 12-inch sewer serving the petitioner's property.
A 20-foot perma.nent sewer easement must be retained along the center line of
the street for access to this sewer. (Restrictions in the easement area will
be stated later in this report. ) The alley in Block 5 is unimproved and
dead-ends on the East End.
The Depa.rtment of Public Works also recommends that the petitioner be re-
sponsible for all costs and expenses in the reconstruction of the street inter-
section on Agate Street at York Avenue, to include the construction and�or
reconstruction of drainage facilities and the construction of new sidewalks,
boulevards, and curbing across the said groposed va.cated street, all to the
satisfaction of the Department of Public Works.
The Water Utility reports a 6-inch water main in the portion of York Avenue
proposed to be vacated. As a condition of the va.cation, they request that an
easement be reta.ined over the north thirty (30) feet of York Avenue. The
Water Utility has no objection to theproposed alley vacation.
The Northwestern Bell Telephone Compar�y reports an aerial cable with joint
use poles wi�h Northern States Power Compar�y in the alley proposed for tira.cation
that serves customers in the area, They request that their interest be pro-
tected.
P;orthern States Power Compa.�y reports of hav�ng a �+-inch gas main in the pro-
posed vacation of a portion oF York Avenue. They also have electric distri-
bu�ion f'�ci=ities in the a�ley. 'I'he�• request that their interest be protected.
