developable remainder. As it turns out, the site is developable even with the easement reservations.
As a result, staff informed all City Departments that this site would be excess property to Utility

8. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 001, 2002, Clarifying the Descrintion of Ditch and Pipe Line
Rights -of -Way Previously Abandoned by the City in Accordance withOrdinance No. 25, 1999.
In 1999, the City Council formally recognized the abandonment as of 1906, of certain rights -of -
way that had been granted to the City in 1882. The City then disclaimed its interest in the
underlying property, subject to two water line easements for existing water pipelines on that
property.
Since that time, the owner of the property has discovered an error in the legal description used to
quiet his title in the property in 1999. As a result, a new quiet title action has been initiated, based
on the corrected legal description of that property.
Ordinance No. 001, 2002, which was unanimously adopted on First Reading on January 15,
2002, confirms s that the 1882 rights on the property as correctly described were abandoned by the
City as of 1906, subject to correction of the 1999 water line easements as needed. This
Ordinance expressly acknowledges that abandonment by reference to the corrected legal
description.
