Resolution Accepting Easement for Public Road Right of Way on West Ellsworth Rd from CRS Realty Company (8 Votes Required)
Memorandum
There is a resolution before you to accept an easement for Public Road Right of Way on West Ellsworth Rd from CRS Realty Company, a Michigan limited liability company.
CRS Realty Company purchased the subject property in three separate but adjacent parcels, all of which faced West Ellsworth Road. At the time of the purchases, parcel one had a valid right of way easement on it, parcel two had no easement on it, and parcel three had a grant of right of way with an error in the legal description, which failed to convey a valid easement.
CRS Realty Company has agreed to convey to the City a right of way easement across their entire property. Since the existing easement area on parcel one is incorporated into the new easement description, this easement also vacates the prior grant of easement as recorded in Liber 1582, Page 413 on February 16, 1977 in Washtenaw County Records.
The easement is in standard form and conveyed without cost to the City.
Acceptance of the easement is recommended.
