ACCEPTANCE OF OWNERSHIP AND MAINTENANCE RESPONSIBIITY OF SAID
ROAD BY THE CITY OF NORTH AUGUSTA, SOUTH CAROLINA; AND,
AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION AND RECORDATION OF CERTAIN
DOCUMENTS IN CONNECTION THEREWITH
WHEREAS, South Carolina Department of Transportation, (the "SCDOT") is
the owner of Bunting Drive (S-309) located within the Lynnhurst Subdivision in the City of
North Augusta, South Carolina, as more particularly described on Exhibit "A" attached
hereto and fully incorporated herein(the"Road"); and,
WHEREAS, the Road is part of the state highway secondary system; and,
WHEREAS, Section 57-5-80 of the South Carolina Code of Laws, 1976, as
amended, permits SCDOT to transfer ownership of any road in the state highway secondary
system determined to be of low traffic importance to a municipality if mutual consent is
reached between SCDOT and the municipality; and,
WHEREAS, the City of North Augusta (the "City") is a South Carolina
municipal corporation vested with the power to acquire public roads in accordance with
South Carolina law; and,
WHEREAS, the City, in accordance with its Stormwater Management
Capital Improvement Plan, has engaged a professional engineering firm to study,
recommend, and design drainage improvements within the Lynnhurst Subdivision to reduce
roadway and private property flooding; and,
WHEREAS, the final design includes the installation of underground storm
drainage piping within the travel lanes of a portion of Bunting Drive, generally between
Towhee Avenue(S-315) and Robin Road (S-311); and,
WHEREAS, the City has made application to the SCDOT for an
Encroachment Permit for the construction of the storm drainage piping and related
appurtenances within the right-of-way; and,
WHEREAS, the SCDOT has denied the permit application, citing its
objection to the pipeline being installed within the travel lanes; and,
WHEREAS, the SCDOT has further suggested that if the City cannot re-
design the project to remove the pipeline from the travel lanes, then it should pursue this
action to allow the project to proceed as designed; and,
WHEREAS, the City's Engineering Department has reviewed the plans and
believes that the current design best meets the hydrologic design parameters, and minimizes
construction impacts upon existing City-owned and private utilities, as well as private
property, and recommends that the City pursue this action; and,
WHEREAS, City Council has determined that it is in the public interest for
the City to request that SCDOT remove a portion of Bunting Drive from the state secondary
highway system and for the City to acquire the Road and the continuing maintenance
obligations from SCDOT; and,
WHEREAS, City Council desires to authorize the City Administrator to
execute such documents as necessary to complete the conveyance of the Roads to the City.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF
THE CITY OF NORTH AUGUSTA, SOUTH CAROLINA, AS FOLLOWS:
1. The City Council hereby authorizes the acquisition and the transfer of
the Road from SCDOT to the City, including the continuing maintenance obligations
