Summary & Background (First sentence includes Agency recommendation. Provide an executive summary of the action that gives an overview of the relevant details for the item.)

 

Scope of Work: Georgia Department of Transportation will be bidding to improve intersection of the SR372 Birmingham Hwy at Birmingham Road and Hickory Flat Road in their project. A Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Georgia Department of Transportation has been proposed as the method of allowing the GDOT contractor to adjust / install valves; and relocate fire hydrants with appurtenances. Fulton County staff will be on-site during the relocation of the fire hydrants to ensure that its construction is done to Fulton County standards.

 

Community Impact: Currently waterlines have served facilities within the SR372 Birmingham Hwy at Birmingham Road and Hickory Flat Road location as a part of Fulton County North Fulton water distribution system. The roadway improvements will affect the elevation of the existing fire hydrant and water valves in this area, therefore it needs to relocation and adjust proposed road grade.

 

Department Recommendation: The Fulton County Department of Public Works recommends executing the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Georgia Department of Transportation as the most cost-effective way to complete these existing fire hydrants relocation and water valves adjustments work.

 

Project Implications: The road widening, milling and resurfacing impacts the existing water system due to modifications of existing grades along the roadway which in turn requires structures to be adjusted to match the proposed roadway surface. The adjustment of water valves and fire hydrants must occur to maintain service in this area.

 

Community Issues/Concerns: During the construction of water valves and fire hydrant adjustments, the water service is to be maintained and not to be impacted

 

Department Issues/Concerns: The Department has no issues or concerns with the proposed MOU.
