The subject site is a 53.78 -foot strip of land located between 1400 and 1412 W. 9 th Avenue and is part

access for the single family residence at 1412 W. 9 th Avenue. The easement is needed to allow the
construction of an ADA- compliant wheelchair ramp leading from the street onto the public sidewalk
and school property. The construction of the ramp will not interfere with vehicular access to 1412 W.
9 th Avenue residence. The Department of Public Works and City Attorney will work with the Oshkosh
Area School District to have appropriate easement documents signed and recorded at the Winnebago
County Register of Deeds.
