Enclosed you will find the original and two copies of the Vacation. We would suggest that you insert the date and recording data of the existing easement which was not contained in the file. We assume that the new Easement will be properly filled out and recorded simultaneously with the Vacation of the existing easement. We want to be sure that the effective vacation does not c�ccur until a proper • easement in favor of the City has been executed. You also want to be sure that the Vice President , instead of the President, has the authority to sign on behalf of the Corporation, and determine whether the Secretary' s signature should also be required. Otherwise , the new Easement form is approved as to legal form, including the provision that the Grantor has the right to use the surface of the right of way but shall not erect any permanent structures or buildings thereon. If we can be of any further assistance to you in this matter please ' advise. We remain, V�ry truly yours , , , 2'�aje��`M.`�C� GMS :ds ' Enc. ` P. S. Since dictating the above and the Vacation of Easement , I have received your letter of March 30 , 1977, together _ with attachments . As youknow permanent improvements should not be allowed to be constructed over any City utility line. In exceptional circumstances the City would have discretion to allow' it',but in any such case an indemnity agreement or bond should be posted by the Grantor to protect the City from damages by reason of any such improvement over the line. Your Department would have the authority to issue a building permit but prior to doing so , there should be � � ; . . � � i .: Page 2 Mr. Gonnason �I March 31, 1977 � enough assurance that a new easement has been properly executed prior or simultaneously with the vacation of an existing easement.

The City further determines that any closing at this time would not 6e in the best pu6lic interest inasmuch as it would divert and channel existing traffic unto already heavily burdened highways, city streets and the Grady Way bridge, all of which would have to absorb considerable heavy truck and other traffic now using the Monster Road crossing. Furthermore, the present condition of the Grady Way bridge is such that extensive repair and replacement ! would have to be undertaken in order to accommodate such traffic. ', The City is also cognizant of the fact that the traffic pattern and configuration of inter-connecting freeways and other arterials in the immediate vicinity of the crossing is an extremely complex and busy one which will further impede any quick response by emergency vehicles of the Cities of Renton, Tukwila, and other municipal entities if such closing takes effect. The City of Renton further finds and concludes that any such closing of the Monster Road crossing, although of possible financial benefit to the railroads involved, would impose a heavy financial burden on the City to make such improvements, and would also be costly to the various business and industrial interests now utilizing such crossing.
