Council authorizes condemnation to secure three easements for Florence Global Technology Park force main
Summary
To keep the Florence Global Technology Park wastewater force‑main project on schedule, Council authorized condemnation for three remaining easements and offered a total of $18,910 in compensation to the outstanding owners.
Florence County authorized the use of condemnation on April 16 to acquire three remaining temporary and permanent easements needed to construct a wastewater force main serving the Florence Global Technology Park.
County staff said the project is funded with South Carolina Department of Commerce grant dollars and City of Florence bond funds. Florence County and the City obtained easement agreements from 25 of 28 landowners; good‑faith outreach to the remaining landowners failed to produce agreements by the county’s stated deadline. The county obtained appraisals and offered a combined $18,910 in compensation to the outstanding parcels; Council authorized condemnation to maintain the project schedule.
