RE: Approve Street Right of Way Dedication at the East 2700-2800 Blocks of Vinland
Street
BACKGROUND
The City of Oshkosh is requesting a right-of-way dedication for two segments of the east right-
of-way of Vinland Street. Vinland Street was mapped as right-of-way when Winnebago
County surveyed its town road network in the 1850s. However, the formal dedication
transferring ownership to the City had not taken place at these locations.
ANALYSIS
The first dedication located at the east 2700 Block of Vinland Street will be 33 feet wide by
approximately 326 feet long and 10,765 square feet in area. The second dedication located at the
2800 Block will be 33 feet wide by 210 feet long and 6,930 square feet.
The dedications are included on a draft Certified Survey Map (CSM) under review by staff. The
owner of the property has been contacted and is agreeable to dedicating the land to the public.
Once city staff approves the CSM it will be recorded at the Winnebago County Register of Deeds.
The dedications will become official upon approval.
RECOMMENDATION
The Plan Commission recommended approval of the Street Right-of-Way Dedication on August
17, 2021. Please see the attached staff report and meeting minutes for more information.
