AUTHORIZING THE RELEASE OF A COVENANT TO PROVIDE

WATER TO MAN MOUND COUNTY PARK

            WHEREAS, property adjoining Man Mound County Park is required by covenant to provide 500 gallons of water per annum to the Park, and without this beneficial interest, the County will be required to find an alternative water source; and,

            WHEREAS, the estate of the adjoining land owner has approached the County and indicated that it would be convenient for the estate if this covenant was released; and,

            WHEREAS, County staff have researched this matter, and determined a fair market value for this privilege, and your undersigned Committee being advised thereof, is hereby recommending that this privilege be released upon timely payment of One-Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00).

            NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Sauk County Board of Supervisors, met in regular session, that the County Clerk is authorized to execute a release of this interest upon review of the transaction by the Corporation Counsel and the payment of One-Thousand Dollars ($1,000).
