Utility Relocation Agreement for Whittlesey Road Widening Project

Initiator

Felton G. Grant, Right of Way Acquisition Coordinator

Recommendation

Approval is requested to execute Two (2) Utility Relocation Agreements \n \n (attached) between the City of Columbus, Ga. and Georgia Power Company to \n \n relocate reimbursment Utility Poles to include wiring, guide wires, utility \n \n easement, etc.at the intersection of Veterans Parkway and Whittlesey Road., all \n \n on Veterans Parkway.

Approval

Pending

Background

As per the Francise agreement , the Georgia Power Untilities along Whittlesey

Road are non-remembursable therefore does not create an expense to the City.

The Georgia Power Utilties along Veterans Parkway is on Georgia Department

State Route and is not covered under the Francise Agreement because the propert

is State Property. In the Local Government Project Agreement the City is

responsible for Right of Way for said project (to exclude the Right of Way on

Veterans Parkway that the GDOT reembursed the city $3.000.000.00 for Right of

Way on Veterans Parkway parcells).and Utility Relocation

Analysis

Because the City is responsible for Utility Relocation cost the City is exposed

to $249,403.00 on one Agreement and $516,805.00 for the other. Both agreements

cannot exceed that amount and could be a lower amount after it is all said and

done.
