Memo, <br /> <br />From; <br /> <br />cc: <br /> <br />Date: <br /> <br />Cabarrus County Board of Commissioners <br />Frank Clifton, Manager \~,~, <br />Jonathan Marshall, Planning Services Director <br />Fletcher Harlsell, County Attorney <br />· 04/12/02 <br />Old Airport Road Improvements <br /> <br />The planned improvements to 'Old' Airport Road do not include any additional right-of-way from <br />adjacent property owners, but they do include the acquisition of a site easement from two owners. A <br />site easement is an area in which NCDOT requires the removal of trees and shrubs and maintenance <br />of the area to prevent future growth that may impede sight lines on the roadway. The plans call for a <br />site easement area of .038 acres from one owner-and .045 acres from another. It appears that one <br />owner will agree to a purchase of the site easement, but the other owner has not agreed. The amount <br />that is being offered for these easements is very small since the County will only acquire the right to <br />remove vegetati,on and maintain that area in grass. <br /> <br />I am requesting that you authorize the County Attorney to proceed with a condemnation process should <br />we be unsuccessful in obtaining this easement from either of the owners. Construction of the <br />improvements can 'begin without these easements but they will need to be in place to complete the <br />construction. <br /> <br />I have attached a map of the overall site with the general area of the site easements and a specific map <br />taken from the improvement plans that shows more detail. <br /> <br />Page I . ~ -.., <br /> <br /> <br />
