Board approves Appalachian Power right-of-way easement for transmission project
Summary
The Board approved a right-of-way easement request from Appalachian Power, covering roughly 5–7 acres on a county-owned parcel, for a transmission-line phase of the Stewart improvement project; towers will be approximately 80–100 feet tall and construction is slated to begin in late 2027.
Kevin Galecki (speaker 18) of ORC Real Estate Solutions described a request by Appalachian Power for a transmission right-of-way easement related to a Stewart-to-Woolwine phase 2 transmission project. He said towers would be approximately 80 to 100 feet tall (current structures nearer 55 feet) and that the easement would affect about 5–7 acres of a county-owned parcel east of the Walmart property. The work was described as transmission only; no new permanent structures would be placed on the parcel beyond construction support during installation.
"Towers are approximately 80 foot, mainly up to 100 feet," Galecki said while reviewing the maps and parcel details. The board moved, seconded, and voted to approve the easement; work is slated to begin in late 2027 and continue through 2029 per the presentation.
