This <br />system is in place and is ready to be put into service. In order to properly maintain the line, the <br />Orange Water and Sewer Authority (OWASA) is requesting the standard 30-foot easement, as <br />depicted on the attached Utility Easement Plat and the As Built-Engineered Drawing. <br />In addition, this approval includes a dedication of the sewer line to OWASA, which requires <br />OWASA to permanently maintain the line. This dedication will be recorded following expiration <br />of the 12-month warranty period. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT: None. <br />RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends the Board approve the easement and <br />utility dedication documents for the sewer line constructed to serve the Homestead Community <br />Center, subject to final review by the County Attorney; and authorize the Chair to sign on behalf <br />of the Board. <br />
