WHEREAS, Pulte Homes is constructing single family rowhomes within Blocks 10 and 15 and construction within these blocks will have a shared alleyway constructed between the townhomes along the east side of Mount Curve Boulevard and the west side of Falls Passage West which will have public water main available to the residents on either side of the alleyway; and

WHEREAS, the Attorney’s Office of the City of Saint Paul has prepared a Municipal Utility and Water Services Agreement which accomplishes such dedication of easement rights; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, that the Board of Water Commissioners of the City of Saint Paul does hereby approve the Municipal Utility and Water Services Easement Agreement between the Board of Water Commissioners of the City of Saint Paul, the City of Saint Paul, and Pulte Homes of Minnesota LLC and does hereby authorize and direct the proper officers of the Board to execute said agreement on behalf of the Board.
