Resolution to Grant an Easement for Road Right-of-Way at South State Street - adjacent to the Ann Arbor Airport - to the Board of County Road Commissioners of Washtenaw County (8 Votes Required)
Memorandum
There is a resolution before you to approve a grant of easement for road right-of-way to the Board of County Road Commissioners of the County of Washtenaw in connection with the reconstruction of the Speedway gas station located at the southeast corner of the Ellsworth and S. State Street intersection.
The proposed dedication is for additional road right-of-way on St. State Street in order to comply with the Washtenaw County Road Commission’s requirements in connection with road improvements made by Speedway SuperAmerica, LLC. The easement area is designed to accommodate the specific road improvements and minimize the impact on the airport’s land.
The Airport Manager and the Airport Advisory Committee reviewed and approved the proposed road dedication and found that the grant of easement to the Washtenaw County Road Commission would not impact the current or future operations of the airport.
Approval of the grant of easement for additional road right-of-way is recommended.
