Dear Mr Lewandowski
OffiCIalS With Wnght County HIghway Department have Informed me that you are chargIng
approXImately $19,000 for an easement to accommodate a bItumInOUS traIl along CSAH 18 The
County IS constructIng the traIl at the request of the CIty ThIs traIl has always been part of the
plannmg effort assocIated With your project Early plans show the traIl WIthm the CSAH 18 nght-
of-way ThIs locatIOn of the traIl was not gomg to be allowed by the County or the CIty The traIl
was gOIng to be bUIlt on the Albert VIllas property WIthm an easement that would have been
dedIcated as part of the plat Because of the upgrade to CSAH 18 everyone agreed that It would be
best to add the traIl construction to the CSAH 18 project
The CIty of AlbertvIlle IS responsIble for all costs assocIated With the traIl construction, mcludIng
land and easement acqUISItion If there IS a cost for easement acqUISItion across the Albert VIllas
Development, the CIty Will be responSIble for thIs cost and pass thIs cost back to you I belIeve the
process would be SImplIfied If you would agree to the easements for the traIl at no cost to the
County
Please call me If you have any comments or questions
