GALPIN LAKE WOODS -
FINAL PLAT AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
RESOLUTION NO.36-88
Planner Nielsen has not received a survey from Arens or their
surveyors. Barbara Jo Arens explained her discrepency in the Galpin
Lake Woods plat as it exists. She had a survey done in 1955 by a
neighborhood property owner, that includes her property. Ms. Arens
felt this survey agrees with their opinion on the property lot line.
In good faith of trying to protect their property, they are asking
the city not to grant the approval of the subdivision until the 10'
discrepency has been determined.
Surveyor Jeff Lindgren agrees that the corner setbacks are correct
but another stake was found and the source of this stake should be
determined prior to approval.
Jeff Schoenwetter's surveyor, Bruce Grivna, feels that the Egan,
Field & Nowak survey is correct and that it agrees with the Arley
Smith survey done in 1940.
Council questioned what legal steps could be taken in order to settle
this line dispute.
Ms. Arens stated the N.S.P. trimmed a tree in their yard that
displaced a horned owl nest. She asked that the developer watch for
that nest and not displace it again.
