title
RE: Approval of an Easement Abandonment

recommendation
BOARD ACTION REQUESTED:
Authorization to Execute Partial Termination of Easements
BACKGROUND:
All public sewer and watermains installed in Genesee County require a recorded easement prior to placing the public utility in service.
I am writing to formally request authorization, from Genesee County, on behalf of the Genesee County Drain Commissioner - Division of Water and Waste Services (GCDC-WWS), to execute a partial termination of easement for certain properties. The purpose of this request is to eliminate easements that are no longer required for public water and/or sewer use. A request of formal delegation of authority from Genesee County to GCDC-WWS would grant the authority to manage, execute, and record the necessary legal documents to terminate the easements described below. This delegation of authority would remain in effect until the easements have been legally terminated and the actions have been recorded with the County Register of Deeds Office.
