Request: It is requested that the Board of Education approve an easement to Georgia Power to allow for an upgrade to electric distribution facilities to improve electric service reliability to the New Elementary School at Dresden.
Why: To allow Georgia Power to improve service to the New Elementary School at Dresden site in an effort to upgrade all equipment needed to provide better service.
