At the request of the City of Plymouth, Monday night the Common Council approved the vacation of a portion of Water Street.
During the public hearing, City Attorney Sean Surrisi said the portion of the street from the Yellow River to East Lake Avenue needed to be vacated for the River Gate South residential apartment complex. He noted that the surrounding property is owned by the City of Plymouth and the utility easement is being finalized.
Surrisi told the council the City Plan Commission will consider a primary/secondary approval of a one lot subdivision next week for this project. All of the lots will be platted a one single lot for the project.
The City Council also approved a Commercial Revitalization Rebate Grant application for Gary Treat. Treat told the council he had to make repairs to the lights that wash the front of the Pilot News building at a cost of $1,200 and then the chimney in the alley was falling off and he had to hire a mason at a cost of $2,800.
While the grant application requires two quotes and the work not being complete before seeking the grant, Treat said he wasn’t expecting to spend that much for the projects. The City Council approved the 20% reimbursement for $800.
