RE:	Request for Easement and Right-of-Way at the Oak View Elementary School Property

The City of High Point has requested that the board transfer to it (for a consideration of $1) two small parcels of the Oak View Elementary School property as additional permanent right-of-way for a limited widening of Oakview Road and James Road. The property area in question involves 306 square feet adjacent to the current right-of-way line of Oakview Road and 721 square feet adjacent to the current right-of-way line of James Road.

The City of High Point has also requested that the board grant to it (for a consideration of $1) a permanent sidewalk existence easement affecting an area containing 891square feet adjacent to the James Road right-of-way and a temporary sidewalk construction easement containing a total of 9982 square feet adjoining the Oakview Road and James Road rights-of-way.

RECOMMENDATION: The administration recommends that the board approve the right-of-way and easement as requested by the City of High Point described above affecting the Oak View Elementary school property. In our judgment, granting the City’s requests will not adversely affect any current or future anticipated activities taking place on the Oak View property.
