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 (GDOT) will be bidding to improve the intersection of SR372 Birmingham Highway at Birmingham Road and Hickory Flat Road. A Contract Item Agreement (“CIA”) with GDOT has been proposed as the method of allowing the GDOT contractor to adjust / install valves and relocate fire hydrants with appurtenances to the Fulton County water system. Fulton County staff will be on-site during the relocation of the fire hydrants to ensure that the construction is done to Fulton County standards. A Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) was approved by the BOC of Fulton County on August 18, 2021, under Agenda Item No. 21-0612. The MOU anticipated that a CIA would be developed and executed.
Community Impact: Currently, Fulton County waterlines have served facilities within the Birmingham Hwy (SR372) 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 they need to be relocated and adjusted to the new road grade.
Department Recommendation: The Fulton County Department of Public Works recommends executing the CIA with the Georgia Department of Transportation as the most cost-effective way of completing these existing fire hydrant relocations and water valve adjustment 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 water service in this area.
Community Issues/Concerns: During the construction of water valves and fire hydrant adjustments, the water service will be maintained and should not be impacted.
Department Issues/Concerns: The Department has no issues or concerns with the proposed CIA.
