Committee accepts drainage easement from Beaufort County to address neighborhood flooding
Summary
The committee approved accepting a drainage and utility easement from Beaufort County at 55 Gardner Drive (former Christian Academy site) so the town's stormwater utility can plan and execute needed drainage improvements in a frequently flooded neighborhood.
Assistant Town Manager Sean Cohen described a longstanding effort to obtain a drainage-and-utility easement at 55 Gardner Drive (the former Christian Academy site). The easement, conveyed by Beaufort County, includes a correct exhibit and property description that enables the town’s stormwater utility to plan and execute improvements in a frequently flooded neighborhood (Old Woodlands area).
Cohen said there is currently no infrastructure in the easement but acquiring the legal right to enter and improve the corridor allows the town to proceed with design and CIP planning. The committee moved and approved acceptance of the easement.
