Summary & Background: The Public Works Department recommends approval of this item. EPD conducted an inspection of the water distribution facilities in North Fulton and determined that some of the sites were not in compliance with current Safe Drinking Water Act requirements. Specifically, the fence line surrounding the water storage tanks & pump stations at Freemanville Road, Hackett Road, Jones Bridge Road, and other locations needs to be cleared of vegetation and overgrowth that might compromise the Department’s ability to prevent unauthorized entry, sabotage, and vandalism.
Scope of Work: Good Choice X-pert Tree Services, LLC will be responsible for clearing all tree limbs/branches that overhang the exterior fence line within 25’ of the ground. The contractor will also be responsible for trimming or removing all unwanted vegetation from the sites, including areas that may be located within detention ponds, and for mowing the grasses areas at each location. All trees larger than 3 inches in diameter will remain unless the tree is located within a detention pond. The work will be a one-time project and not annual maintenance. The department has identified the following facility sites for these activities:
Jones Bridge Elevated Tanks Alpharetta/Preston Ridge Ground Storage Tanks Hackett Road Elevated Tanks Woodstock Road Pump Station Henderson Road Pump Station Providence Road Pump Station
