RE: Accept Sidewalk and Electric Easement at the Northeasterly Corner of High
Avenue and Vine Avenue (1020 Vine Avenue)
BACKGROUND
The City of Oshkosh is requesting acceptance of an easement for sidewalk and electrical
equipment at the northeasterly corner of High and Vine Avenues. The subject site is a 0.45-acre
lot located at the northeasterly corner of High and Vine Avenues developed with a 12-unit
apartment building. The easement will be a 12.5 square foot triangular area located at the
southwesterly corner of the subject property, running five feet along both the High Avenue and
Vine Avenue rights-of-way.
ANALYSIS
The City is requesting the easement to allow for installation of an ADA compliant public
concrete sidewalk. In the future, the City may install facilities such as traffic signals, an electric
pull box, and related equipment and facilities. These facility upgrades are part of the
reconstruction of Algoma Boulevard and Vine Avenue. The easement will allow the City to
construct the structures and provide continued access for future maintenance and
replacements/upgrades as needed. The City Attorney’s office has drafted the necessary
easement documents. The Department of Public Works does not have concerns with the
proposal and will work with the property owners to have the appropriate easement documents
signed and recorded at the Winnebago County Register of Deeds.
RECOMMENDATION
The Plan Commission recommended acceptance of the easement as requested on July 5, 2022.
Please see the attached staff report and meeting minutes for more information.
