Chandler, County Administrator <br />From Thomas W. Frame, General Services Director --rtgu4 U• ? --- <br />Subject: Grant of Easements for Utility Lines servicing the New Election s Office <br />BACKGROUND: <br />In order to provide water and electrical services to the new Supervisor of Elections office, <br />underground electrical service and water service were brought in from existing services adjacent <br />to 26th Street. City records indicated no existing utility easements within the abandoned right-of- <br />way of 18th Avenue between 25th Street and 26th Street. With no evidence of easements, it is a <br />City of Vero Beach requirement that we grant necessary easements for these lines and grant title <br />of the lines to the City. <br />Our project engineer, Joe Schulke, P.E., prepared the necessary document to be used to <br />accomplish the granting of easements and transfer of ownership of the utility lines as required. <br />Currently, the County Public Works Department is preparing the necessary as -built drawings and <br />the descriptions of the needed easements pending receipt of needed information from the direct <br />bore contracts that installed the underground lines. - <br />Since we are in the process of finalizing those documents, the Exhibit "A" cited in the easement <br />document is not available at the writing of this transmittal. Staff is requesting that the Board <br />approve the grant of easements and the Bill of Sales associated with the utilities and authorize <br />the Chairman to execute the documents subject to the attachment of the easement descriptions <br />after review and approval of those descriptions by the County Attorney. <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br />Staff recommends approval of the grant of easements and the Bill of Sale for the utility lines <br />subject to the receipt of the easement descriptions and the County Attorney's review and <br />approval of the descriptions with authorization to allow the Chairman to execute the document <br />upon the County Attorney's approval. <br />OCTOBER 1, 2002 <br />71 <br />• <br />• <br />
