It does not appear that Resolution 01-097 was ever filed with Hennepin
County As a background on this resolution, in the fall of 2001, the
developer's surveyor noted that the land to be platted as PARK COMMONS EAST
overlapped with property to the north [Registered Land Survey No 2 and the
plat of Westmoreland Park] which was owned by the City -- now Wolfe Park
This office drafted Resolution 01-097 in anticipation that the City would
join in the plat as an' owner of the overlap area and then convey any
interest the City had in the PARK COMMONS EAST property to the St Louis
Park EDA
After the City Council passed Resolution 01-097, the developer's surveyor
was able to determine an exact legal description for the overlap area, and
the City quit claimed this overlap area to the EDA by a deed dated October
26, 2001 and recorded November 16, 2001 as Abstract Doc. No 7582488 (see
attached deed)
*dike the other Resolutions used to clear up title issues and filed with
ennepin County in the fall of 2001, Resolution 01-097 did not need to be
filed because the Deed for the overlap area was the ultimate document that
cleared up the title issue
The title insurance agent at Old Republic searched the property records and
did not find that Resolution 01-097 was ever filed It does not need to be
filed at this time This title issue is resolved
