Summary: Presented by: Mr. Erick Hofstetter, Chief Operating Officer, Division of Operations
Request: It is requested that the DeKalb County Board of Education (“the Board”) approve grant of permanent sewer and temporary construction easements to DeKalb County Government, Department of Watershed Management (“DWM”) for the construction and maintenance of sewer lines at the DeKalb High School Technology-South Site.
Why: Granting the easement(s) will allow the DeKalb County Department of Watershed Management to improve sewer service by installing and maintaining the sanitary sewer line serving current and future homeowners in the Dekalb HS Technology South site vicinity.
Details: The DeKalb County Government, Department of Watershed Management, is requesting permanent and temporary easements to install new sewer lines, improving sewer service at the DeKalb High School Technology-South Site and the surrounding community.
DeKalb County is in the process of replacing sewer lines off Panthersville Road and near Doolittle Creek part of the county. The project is entitled “Doolittle Creek Project No. 0024-10”. DeKalb County Watershed is asking for new permanent and temporary sewer easements to install the major new lines to service the school and surrounding communities. The old sewer line, which also runs through the school property, is not being replaced or removed. Instead, it will be deactivated, and the county is maintaining its ownership over the old easement.
The permanent easements are where the new pipes will be placed, and the temporary construction easements are to access the area of the pipes. The replacement of the sewer infrastructure in the area will provide more reliable sewer service around and to the DeKalb HS Technology South site.
The following easements are being requested:
Parcel 12: 3311 Panthersville Rd., Decatur, GA 30034 - a permanent sewage easement (10,200 square feet) and a temporary construction easement (31,449 square feet)
Parcel 13: 3313 Panthersville Rd., Decatur, GA 30034 - a permanent sewage easement (7,853 square feet) and a temporary construction easement (11,085 square feet)

Parcel 19: 3251 Panthersville Rd., Decatur, GA 30034 - a temporary construction easement (21,112 square feet)
Financial impact: The total value of both the permanent easements and temporary construction easements requested at DeKalb HS Technology South is $6,100.00:
