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: Piaskey Holdings, LLC, the owner of the real property located at 10365 Waters Road, Alpharetta, Georgia 30022, has requested the conditional approval of the Fulton County Board of Commissioners via an Indemnification, Maintenance, and Land Use Agreement for Private Improvement to install stormwater infrastructure within the County’s existing sewer line easement area.
The purpose of the Indemnification Agreement is to formally affirm the terms of Fulton County’s conditional approval of an encroachment(s) of private improvements to remain within the County’s sewer line easement area found in Deed Book 66229, Page 252.
At the request of Piaskey Holdings, LLC, the Department of Public Works completed an on-site assessment of the area, which is approximately 400 square feet, and confirmed that the County’s sewer system will not be adversely impacted and can continue to be properly maintained if this encroachment is permitted.
Community Impact: As per the terms of the agreement, Fulton County retains its full access to maintain its sanitary sewer service line while granting the property owner the conditional approval to allow installed stormwater improvements to remain within the County’s sewer line easement area.
Department Recommendation: The Department of Real Estate and Asset Management, DREAM, accepts the conclusion of the Department of Public Works to formally accept the terms of the Indemnification Agreement and recommends its approval.
Project Implications: No negative impacts to sanitary sewer services or access to maintain the County’s onsite sanitary sewer line will result by allowing stormwater infrastructure to remain within a portion of the County’s sewer easement
