Clay, we moved the wall 5' away from the water/sewer lines at all points and Jose was involved when we did. I will have the wall/fence surveyed and send it to you.

As of August, nothing had yet been done. I do not recall seeing any work there, and I was not called for any inspections there since then. It seems that if something was done, we would need verification of the current locations and proximities of the fence foundations and the water lines in relation to the easements shown on the plat. I believe that is what Clay is looking for. David E.

We can: Move the wall 5' from the existing water line at all points or, Relocate the water line in the easement a minimum of 5' at all points from the current wall location. Thanks for your patience and have a great day.

Since it is apparent that the line was not constructed in the location shown on the plans, the plat stipulates that the easements follow their installed locations. Therefore, the screening wall needs to slide over so that there is at least 5' between the waterline and the screening wall. For example, if the waterline was to be centered in a 10' easement and it is constructed 5' outside of the easement, then the easement slides over 10' to encompass the waterline and thus the screening wall also needs to slide over by 10'. This would leave 20' between the right-of-way or back of curb in this case and the screening wall. I am not sure how the waterline got constructed so far away from its design location. It has to either be a construction staking issue or a problem with the contractor. Regardless, it appears to have happened in a number of locations throughout the project. Even more troubling is that we did not find any tracing wire on the waterlines, which will make them virtually impossible to locate. Anytime the screening wall contractor is placing a screening wall in the vicinity of a waterline, it would be prudent to let us know so we could have a utility crew on standby. If you have any questions about this, please let me know. Thanks, Clay Barnett, P.E.

Is that correct? If so, I believe the rule that we discussed last week was 5'. Secondly, I want to make this work for everyone but what are the easements for if construction can't happen within 10' of the physical location of the main? That effectively makes it a 20' floating easement. Lastly, typically easements and main lines can be crossed at a 45-90 degree angle, does that apply in Addison? Thanks for your patience and have a great day.
