DRAINAGE EASEMENT ABANDONMENT — 2950 MUSTANG
DRIVE
City Council consider adopting an ordinance abandoning an 85 -foot wide drainage
easement adjacent to Mustang Drive at the Lakes of Williamsburg apartments, 2950
Mustang Drive, and take any necessary action.
BACKGROUND:
The property owner of the apartment complex at 2950 Mustang Drive is refinancing his
property. During the title review, the drainage easement has been discovered.
The easement was dedicated to the City in 1992 in preparation for the construction of
the Mustang Drive widening project. The easement encompassed a large surface
drainage collection area that was ultimately removed when the apartment complex was
constructed.
The apartment complex has a building located on this easement.
The easement is no longer used by the City with the drainage system installed with
apartment complex development.
Staff recommends approval.
