Application for Road Easement from Minuesota Department of Natural Resources, Earl Hemmerich. Earl and Jeannine Hemmerich own a property located on the western shore of Sibley Lake on North Sluetter Road The Hemmerichs would like to subdivide their property but need to have frontage on a public right-of-way for those lots. The Hemmerichs have proposed extending North Sluetter Road north in order to meet this requirement. However,North Sluetter Road runs along the border between Pequot Lakes and Loon Lake Township,putting half of the right-of-way in the City and the other half in the Township. The property immediately to the west of the Hemmerich property is State of Minnesota Trust Fund land managed by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources. The Department of Natural Resources may grant permanent or temporary easements across State-managed land for the road,but because this is Trust Fund land, the easement can only be granted to a governmental unit and not an individual. Mr. Hemmerich is requesting that the City be named as the applicant to acquire the easement. Mr.Hemmerich will agree to pay the fees associated with the Application,and if the application is approved,the Hemmerichs will be responsible for the construction of the roadway. The Planning Commission stated they are not waiving any decision making process on the preliminary plat related to this road extension by recommending the easement. The Planning Commission is recommending that the City make the application to acquire the easement from the Department of Natural Resources. 14084 Baxter Drive, Suite 7 Baxter, MN 56401 (218) 828-3064 www.communitygrowth.com
