Summary & Background: The Department of Public Works recommends award of this contract to Mariani Enterprises, LLC dba Ed Castro Landscape, Inc. to provide easement maintenance in both the North and South Fulton service areas.
Scope of Work: This contract includes both sewer and water easement clearing activities in the North Fulton water and wastewater systems and sewer easement clearing activities along the South Fulton wastewater system on property owned or within easements maintained by Fulton County.
Community Impact: Easement clearing activities may impact surrounding neighborhoods because the activities usually result in the removal of trees and shrubs that interfere with access to the infrastructure that is located in the County’s easement.
Department Recommendation: The Department of Public Works recommends approval.
Project Implications: Easement-clearing activities are needed to provide the County with access to conduct maintenance and repairs to the water and wastewater systems. In the event that access is impeded due to overgrown easements, spills and main breaks could result which might negatively impact the environment and create potential health concerns.
Community Issues/Concerns: Some neighbors of the easement areas have previously expressed concern regarding the removal of trees and disturbing the existing environment.
Department Issues/Concerns: No issues/concerns are known with this contract.
