Agenda Item
ii. Granting of Easement for improvement of distribution lines on and around Southwest DeKalb High School
Summary: Erick Hofstetter, Chief Operating Officer, Division of Operations
Request: It is requested that Board of Education approve an easement to Georgia Power to allow for improvement to existing distribution lines which service Southwest Dekalb HS and other DeKalb residences.
Why: To allow Georgia Power to improve service to Southwest DeKalb HS in the effort to reduce the number and length of power outages.
Details: The purpose of this project is to strengthen the existing distribution lines which service Southwest DeKalb HS site off Kelley Chapel Road. Overhead lines in certain areas may be more prone to outages caused by trees contacting lines or vehicular collisions. By replacing targeted portions of overhead lines and equipment, Georgia Power hopes to reduce the number and length of power outages.
Financial impact: As this easement will directly benefit the District, the financial impact of this easement will be $10.00 paid by Georgia Power to the District.
