You will be receiving an application for minor
subdivision from Mr. David Dupay, surveyor with Folz, Freeman and
Dupay, who has surveyed properties on behalf of Routson Motors.
Routson Motors has acquired the former Sut t ler' s Liquor
Building on Osgood Avenue adjacent to what is now the Amoco Oil
Station, the former Erickson Post.
In surveying those properties, it was determined that an
encroachment in the boundary lines has existed in the main building
for Standard Oil as well as an encroachment in the wooden structure
that serves that main structure.
In order to resolve the encroachment, both affected
properties are needing to make an adjustment to the common boundary
line. They will do this by having mutual conveyances of what ends
up being a very small sliver of land to each other so that they can
adjust the boundary accordingly. I am enclosing a photocopy of the
portion of the survey which indicates the area of encroachment.
Mr. Dupay will be preparing the legal descriptions of the area to
be conveyed between the respective parties.
Since this is purely for the purposes of making a
boundary adjustment so as to avoid the encroachment and is not
altering the total square footage of either property or otherwise
substantially changing any aspect on either property, I am
Ms. Judy Holst

suggesting that this transaction be allowed to go forward by way of
minor subdivision without public hearing. I have reviewed this
matter with Scott Richards, who has advised me that he is not aware
of any issues with regard to either property that would require the
attention of the Council in any other respect. I have also checked
on the subject properties with Jim Butler, who is also advising me
that there is nothing within his department that requires any
further attention on these properties.
In order to accommodate real estate transfers and
closings that are scheduled, the parties are requesting that this
matter be scheduled on the Council agenda for January 27 and, given
the nature of the request, I would suggest it is appropriate to be
placed upon the consent agenda.
