Background

Kemira Chemicals Inc. had to replace a sanitary sewer that services their

facilities and tie to the public system owned by the Columbus Water Works

across Bull Creek. In order to this they had to cross Canal Street. Portions

of the property are owned by the City of Columbus and other portions owned by

the Development Authority of Columbus, Georgia.

but desires to obtain a permanent easement for future maintenance needs and

property records. The Development Authority has already agreed to the

easement but desires to wait on Council approval for final execution.

Financial Considerations

The ongoing maintenance of the sanitary sewer will be at the expense of Kemira

Chemicals, Inc.

Projected Annual Fiscal Impact Statement

None for the City.

Legal Considerations

The agreement requires Council authorization.

Recommendations/ Actions

Approve the resolution authorizing the City Manager to enter into an agreement

with Kemira Chemicals, Inc. and the Development Authority of Columbus, Georgia

for a 20' wide sanitary sewer easement across Canal Street and other

properties.
