A request for a Metes and Bounds Subdivision of 15.59 acres of vacant unplatted land on the South Side of 37th Street N. W., west of Third Avenue N. W. was discussed by the Council. Roger Plumb, Public Servic Director was concerned about the dedication of the street right-of-way in this area. He stated that if this is not obtained by the Council at this time,and'the street would ever be needed, the City may have to buy back the property. It is the usual policy of the City to have this dedicated. In a normal manner of platting, this would autom- atically be dedicated. Mr. Plumb recommended that the same policy be followed in this case. Mr. Rick Hexum, Developer stated that the reason for the Metes and Bounds was to get a parcel designated so that a development could be built. He stated the process of platting takes a longer period of time, and they wanted to start the project yet this fall. Mr. Fred Suhler, City Attorney stated that a problem with dedicating a street in this case, would be in the division of the parcels. We can only use three parcels in a Metes and Bounds descrip- tion and if the street would be dedicated on a Metes and Bounds, they would have four parcels. If the Council approved a parcel without dedication, then the City could not demand a right-of-way dedication for that parcel, even though the remaining were to be officially platt. ed. After discussion by the Council, Powers moved, Larson second to adopt Resolution Nog. 2-80 approve the Metes and Bounds for Parcel "A" and include the right-of-way for the Street. The remaining land would be left in one parcel at this time. In the future this land would be officially platted and the remainder of the street right-of- way would be dedicated to the City in that manner. This was acceptable to the developers; Ayes (7), Nays (0). Motion carried.
