VIII. ANALYSIS
Analysis Leading to Staff Recommendation:
The applicant requests approval to vacate a portion of the l2-foot wide public utility, irrigation
and drainage (PUDI) easements platted on the east boundary of Lot 78, Block 1 of the Spurwing
Subdivision. Currently, the PUDI easement impacts several of the buildable lots and a common
lot (Lots 5-7, Block 1) platted with the Spurwing Challenge Subdivision. The new segment of the
utility easement has been established with the recording of the Spurwing Challenge plat thus
eliminating the need for the PUDI easement to serve the development. All applicable utility
providers have consented to the relinquishment of the utility easement in accord with state statute.
Since new easements will be established with the new plat, Public Works has no objections and
the service providers have granted relinquishment of the easement, Staff recommends vacating
the PUDI easement as proposed in Exhibit A.3.
