Agenda Item
i. Approval of the Amended Easement Agreement with the City of Dunwoody at the Austin Elementary Site
Summary: Presented by: Mr. Erick Hofstetter, Chief Operating Officer, Division of Operations
Request: It is requested that the Board of Education approve an amendment to the existing easement with the City of Dunwoody to allow for the maintenance of utilities serving the City of Dunwoody property.
Why: To allow the City of Dunwoody to maintain and modify utilities within the North Access Easement. The amended easement will help the City of Dunwoody manage the utilities that serve the Dunwoody Nature Center.
Details: The City of Dunwoody has requested an amendment to the existing 2017 North Access Easement. The City of Dunwoody is looking to expand the current access easement which provides access to the Austin Elementary driveway to reach the Dunwoody Nature Center to now also include maintaining utilities that service the nature center. The City of Dunwoody is building an addition to the Nature Center that would require a new water line to be installed. The amendment will allow the City of Dunwoody the right to construct, install, operate, alter, repair, modify, and replace lines within the easement area. This amendment to the easement will not impact access to the Austin Elementary facility.
Financial impact: There is no financial impact on the DeKalb County School District or the City of Dunwoody associated with this easement request.
