Subject

Resolution 2017-13 - Acceptance of Utility Easement for Future Sewer Line.

Background

The owner of property located at 1427 Franklin Road, H&J Realty, wishes to develop the property at some future date. At that time, should a project be approved at this location, the owner would be required to extend a public sewer line to the site. Although there is currently no plan prepared or a timeline for development, the owner proposes to extend sewer to the property at this time in conjunction with the Franklin Road widening project. Completing the sewer line extension while construction for the road widening project is ongoing could potentially save the owner construction costs, as opposed to waiting until after the road improvements are completed.

In order to extend public sewer to his property, the owner needs to acquire a 10 foot wide sewer easement from an adjacent property owner on the opposite side of Franklin Road, Dr. Samuel Dunn. (See attached site map.) Both owners have agreed to terms and the easement document has been signed by Dr. Dunn (copy attached). H&J Realty is now beginning design of the public sewer extension.

Staff is recommending that the easement be accepted by the Board of Commissioners as a public utility easement. If acceptance is authorized, the easement will become the property of the City for future maintenance of the sewer line by the Water Services Department. The easement document will be recorded at the office of the Williamson County Register of Deeds once it is fully executed.

Should you have any questions, please contact Chris Milton, Water Services Director.
