Approval of a resolution releasing a 1960 sanitary sewer agreement on the site of a proposed assisted living and memory care facility at 3501 Douglas Drive North.

The sanitary sewer agreement from 1960 is not needed for the proposed assisted living facility at 3501 Douglas Drive. 4.5.

A resident inquired about the ability to install a drain in the front yard of 6427 42nd Ave and a pipe connecting into the existing storm water catch basin in the northwest corner of the Hennepin County Library property. Since the catch basin is on County property, City staff have been working to find an arrangement between the City, County, and 6427 42nd Ave property owner. This agreement will allow for the pipe to be installed into the existing catch basin. 5.
