Summary & Background
Scope of Work: The proposed Elara at Bethany Project, a residential development, requires a connection to the County’s sewer system. Fulton County development regulations require that all new sewer line connections acknowledge Fulton County’s ownership interests in the area(s) in which a connection is being made to the County’s sewer system before issuing a Land Disturbance Permit. The easement area to be conveyed to the County consists of 14,026 square feet and is located in Land Lot 972 of the 2nd District, 1st Section of Fulton County, Georgia.
