Commissioners approve two Georgia Power tree‑trim easements on county triangles for modest payments
Summary
Georgia Power requested two small easements for tree trimming on county-owned triangles across from Ellersley Park and at GA‑85/GA‑315; the board authorized execution of documents and accepted payments totaling about $4,410.
Georgia Power asked the board to approve two small expanded tree‑trim/clearing easements on county‑owned parcels near Ellersley Park and at the GA‑85/GA‑315 intersection. County staff said the easements are along existing power corridors and involve modest widening rather than new routes.
The county will receive $2,430 for the parcel across from Ellersley Park and $1,980 for the triangle at GA‑85 and GA‑315; commissioners moved, seconded and approved both easements unanimously. Commissioners asked that Georgia Power maintain the easement areas, keeping them mowed and not affecting park facilities.
