MEMORANDUM
DATE: October 15, 2021
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Ken Cammilleri, City Administrator
RE: Request to Table Public Hearing for Vacating for a Portion of
Pedestrian Trail Easement on the Northern Shore of Goose
Lake
It has come to my attention that I failed to arrange a required consultation with the
commissioner of natural resources to review the proposed vacation. A 60 day notice was
supplied to the DNR as with the previous submission, but this consultation step is required
byMin. Stat. 412.851 and must be taken at least 15 days prior to holding a public hearing on
this issue.
I will be confirming with the DNR next week Monday prior to the meeting to confirm
whether or not the City will be able to proceed with the scheduled and noticed hearing time.
It is likely that the City Council may be requested not to open a public hearing on this matter
and to approve a new resolution for a public hearing for a future regularly scheduled Council
meeting date or an agreed upon special meeting date and time. Recommendations on
meeting times will be available next week.
I apologize for any inconvenience to those who have an interest in the outcome of a
decision on this issue. Comments will continue to be compiled up until the date of the
public hearing set by the City Council.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
