1 ORANGE COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS Action Agenda Item No. 9-C_ ACTION AGENDA ITEM ABSTRACT Meeting Date: December 16, 1997 SUBJECT: OWASA Easement for Water and Sewer lines at Southern Human Services Center DEPARTMENT: PURCHASING AND Public Hearing: Yes: No: CENTRAL SERVICES Budget Amendment Reqd? Yes No ATTACHMENT(S): INFORMATION CONTACT: PAM JONES, ext. 2650 Water easement Sewer easement Telephone Number- Plat Hillsborough 732-8181 Chapel Hill 967-9251 Mebane 227-2031 Durham 688-7331 PURPOSE: To consider granting easements to OWASA for water and sewer lines constructed at the Southern Human Services Center (SHS). BACKGROUND: The Board approved the dedication of water and sewer lines serving the Southern Human Services Center (SHS) on June 30, 1997. The corresponding deed of easements were inadvertently not forwarded to the County so that they could be processed simultaneously with the dedication. The thirty foot (30') easements are depicted on the attached plat. The sewer easement extends from our building in a northeasterly direction then north along our property line before tying into the main line which runs east (toward Brookstone Apartments). The water easement basically follows the access road from the building to Homestead Road. The plat is recorded with the Register of Deeds office in plat book 78, page 88 and specifically identifies the location of the lines and corresponding easement. The building is nearing completion and this easement is required by OWASA in order to have the meters installed. RECOMMENDATION: The Manager recommends that the Board grant the thirty foot easements for water and sewer lines to OWASA pursuant to the recorded plat and contingent upon Attorney review of the easement documents; and authorize the Chair to sign on behalf of the Board.
