Staff, working with the City Attorney have developed a temporary easement template (see attached). This template can be used for all types of construction projects to provide the City the necessary permission to encroach along private property frontage to complete the project while providing the property owner assurances that their frontage will be properly restored once construction activities are complete. Once all construction and restoration activities are complete, and after concurrence with the private property owner, the temporary easement is terminated. Due to the timing challenges of distributing and receiving signed temporary easement documents back from property owners and then scheduling them for Council approval, it is difficult for staff to have this process complete in advance of commencing construction. Accordingly, staff is requesting that City Council consider authorizing the City Manager and/or her designated staff to sign these temporary easements on behalf of the City Council in order to ensure timely construction schedules. Any temporary easements that do not follow this template will be brought to Council for approval.  RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve the temporary easement template and authorize the City Manager and/or her designated staff to sign temporary easements on behalf of the City Council  RECORD OF COUNCIL ACTION  MEETING DATE ACTION
