Council reviews Duke Energy request to bury lines at Nettles Park (Ellis Park)
Summary
Council discussed a staff recommendation to grant Duke Energy a permanent easement to place underground utility lines along Nettles Park Road to the main building; staff said the new easement location differs from the existing lights and requires a recorded easement.
Jacob told council Duke Energy seeks a permanent easement to bury electrical lines along Nettles Park Road that differ from the current above-ground alignment. He explained the company needs rights to place underground infrastructure alongside the road and through an easement corridor to the main building, and that staff will process the easement documentation.
Council asked clarifying questions about whether existing easements covered the work; Jacob said they did not and that the new alignment requires a dedicated easement. No resident comments were recorded on the easement at the Aug. 3 meeting.
