Title
Resolution Accepting Utility Easement from Greenhills School 850 Greenhills Drive (8 Votes Required)
Memorandum
There is a resolution before you to accept an easement for public utilities from the Greenhills School, a Michigan non profit corporation, for a water main in connection with the school's building expansion project.
 
Greenhills School is expanding its existing school building.  To accommodate the expansion of the building while maintaining the existing utility service to the building, it is necessary to add a new section of pipe which will connect to the piping system currently in place.  The additional grant of easement covers this new section of the expanded and relocated utility pipe.
 
The easement is in standard form and conveyed without cost to the City.
 
Acceptance of the easement is recommended.
