(District 3 — Johnson) Background Summary: Prima Vista Utilities acquired a temporary construction easement in November 1984 from Richard W. Davis and Allison D. Burguiere, the then - owners of Orange County Parcel No. 20- 22 -28- 0000 -00 -021, located in the southeast corner of the intersection of Maine Street and Richmond Avenue. This acquisition was part of the process to construct the original Lift Station 7, which was a major component of their sanitary sewer collection and transmission system. That easement was to terminate "one year following the commencement of improvements for which this easement is being granted, or until the use thereof is abandoned." The City subsequently acquired the assets of Prima Vista Utilities, including the original Lift Station 7. That facility was enlarged and relocated to a point further north adjacent to the Richmond Avenue right of way and north of Maine Street by the City in 2009. As part of this project, the City acquired a temporary construction easement from McCormick Road, LLC, the owner of Orange County Parcel No. 20- 22 -28- 0000 -00 -015 in 2009. This easement was to "terminate upon completion of the construction of the Improvements as certified by the City" and carried a requirement for the City to "record a Notice of Termination in the Public Records of Orange County, Florida" upon completion of the work. Both parcels are now owned by M &I Regional Properties, LLC, which has asked the City to provide a formal Notice of Termination for both easements in order to facilitate sale of the land and its subsequent development. All construction activities for which the easements were acquired have ceased. Terminating the easement will not adversely impact City operations. Issue: Should the City Commission approve the termination of two temporary construction easements associated with the original construction and subsequent relocation of Lift Station 7? Recommendations The Engineering Department recommends that the City Commission authorize the Mayor to execute notices of termination for the two identified easements. Doing so will facilitate development of the affected properties. Attachments: A sample easement termination agreement addressing both properties is attached. The final documents to be executed by the Mayor will address each parcel in a separate termination notice and are being prepared by the City Attorney and will be made available at the City Commission meeting. 1 Financial Impact: There is no direct and immediate financial impact on the City through this action; however, subsequent development of the properties will provide additional revenues to the City.
