Title/Name/Summary
Winkler Plat of Abrogation- 14169 Creek Crossing Dr.
History
This plat is proposed by the homeowners, Jason and Lesley Winkler of 14169 Creek Crossing Drive, to eliminate a portion of the utility and drainage easement within their property along the west property line. The legal description of the easement portion is as follows:
The northeasterly 5 feet of the southwesterly 15 feet of lot 31 (except the southeasterly 15 feet thereof) in Creekside Unit 1, being a subdivision in the West 1/2 of the Southeast 1/4 of Section 6, Township 36 North, Range 12, East of the Third Principal Meridian, according to the plat thereof recorded May 11, 1989 as doc. number 89216015 in Cook County Illinois.
The need for the abrogation is to allow for a future building addition to the residence. Staff has reviewed the conceptual layout of the building addition to confirm required building setbacks are to be respected, and the amount of easement abrogation has been calculated based on the minimum allowable setback at the west property line. It should be noted that located just due west of the property is a creek outlot area owned and maintained by the Village. The setback of the future building addition will have no effect on the adjoining creek outlot area.
Staff has reviewed the plat, and also confirmed the ability to eliminate the portion of the easement based on Village utility infrastructure atlases and actual ground markings via a J.U.L.I.E. located obtained by the homeowner. The homeowner has already obtained the release of partial easement rights from the necessary utility companies which currently maintain rights to utlilize this easement.
This is now before the Village Board to authorize signature of the plat.
