Council grants easement to gas company for Greenway Trail directional boring
Summary
To repair storm‑damaged gas infrastructure under the Greenway Trail, Fletcher approved a small easement with a payment calculated at $1,388 after staff and the town attorney reviewed the documents; the work will be underground directional boring with restrictions on surface use.
The council approved a staff‑recommended easement allowing a gas company to conduct directional boring beneath the town’s Greenway Trail to repair a storm‑damaged gas line.
Staff said the easement affects a small area on the north side of Mills Gap Road and that the work will be underground; the proposed payment, calculated by area, was $1,388. Town attorney Joe Fuquez reviewed the easement documents and indicated he was comfortable with the agreement. Staff also noted standard easement restrictions — including prohibitions on building or placing trees within the easement area — to protect trail integrity and streambank stability.
The council moved, seconded and approved the easement on a voice vote.
