BACKGROUND: As described in the attachments, Orange County participated with the City of Mebane in a joint venture to construct water and sewer lines in the western part of Orange County. Orange County's part in the joint venture was limited principally to acquiring title to necessary sewer easements and using its general obligation bonds to, in - part, finance the construction of the water and sewer system. The agreement between Orange County and Mebane. and the, judgment of the court resolving. the meaning of the agreement provides for the transfer of all Orange County's interest in the water .and sewer system upon the repayment by Mebane of 'the. bond obligation. As stated in the February 10, 1993 letter -from John Link to Robert Wilson, Mebane repaid the bond obligation on November 13, 1992 . All that is left for Orange County to do is to document the transfer of easements as requested from Mebane from time to time. The easement which is enclosed relates to a particular tract of land. As I understand it, the property owners whose property is crossed by this easement have negotiated with. Mebane to move the easement. Mebane has agreed. However, first the easement must be conveyed from the .County to Mebane so that. Mebane can accomplish the relocation. Everything is., in order for the transfer of this easement from Orange County to the City of Mebane. • RECOMMENDATION: The •' County Manager and the County Attorney recommend that the Board authorize the County convey to cone the easement in question to the City of Mebane and authorize the Chair and the Clerk to the Board to execute the deed of easement which is an attachment to this agenda abstract.
