PLAN COMMISSION STAFF REPORT MARCH 16, 2021
ITEM I.B: ACCEPT WATER MAIN EASEMENT AT THE 3000 BLOCK OF BROMFIELD
DRIVE
GENERAL INFORMATION
Applicant: City of Oshkosh Department of Public Works
Owner: Lutheran Homes of Oshkosh
Actions Requested:
The City of Oshkosh is requesting acceptance of a water main easement to allow construction of
water main and related structures through an existing undeveloped lot located west of the
termination of Bromfield Drive.
Applicable Ordinance Provisions:
N/A
Property Location and Background Information:
The subject site is a 35-foot wide by approximately 1,000 feet long strip of land located west of
the termination of Bromfield Drive in the Town of Algoma. The property is undeveloped and is
partially being used for agricultural purposes.
The purpose of the easement is to allow the Department of Public Works to construct water
main from Quail Run Drive and connect to water main in Bromfield Drive. This will eliminate
a dead-end water main stub and create a localized looped system. The looped system will
improve water quality to the adjacent homes and greatly reduce the possibility of disruption of
water service.
ANALYSIS
The proposed 6,826 square foot easement is 35 feet wide by 195 feet long located adjacent to the
lot’s south line then heading north to the westerly termination of Bromfield Drive.
The water main is being installed to create a loop which will reduce the number of properties
serviced by a dead end water main from 89 to a handful. Currently, during a water main break
near W. 9th Avenue and Fox Fire Drive there would be approximately 89 properties that would
be without water and subject to notification. The water main loop will reduce the number of
affected properties to a more manageable number.
The easement will allow the city to access the property and construct water main and related
structures within the easement area. The city will have continued rights to access the easement

area to maintain, replace, relocate or remove the water main facilities. The City has been
working with Lutheran Homes of Oshkosh which has agreed to grant the easement.
The City Attorney’s office has drafted the necessary easement documents. The Department of
Public Works does not have concerns with the proposal and is coordinating with Lutheran
Homes of Oshkosh to have the appropriate easement documents signed and recorded at the
Winnebago County Register of Deeds upon Common Council approval.
RECOMMENDATION/CONDITIONS
Staff recommends approval of the acceptance of the proposed water main easement as
proposed.
