Purpose

Authorzing an easement.

Background

Background: The Tri-County Airport has been dealing with issues of surface water at the Tri-County Airport for several years. The Tri-County Airport is currently working with Jewell Associates Engineers, inc. (Jewell) to resolve these water issues.  Jewell is in the process of engineering a drainage solution that will remove the surface water at the Airport.  Hartung Farms owns farm fields that are west of Peck road and south of the airport.  Hartung Farms has requested an easement over Tri-County Airport property to pump excess ground water into the drainage system that the Tri-County Airport is installing.  Jewell has indicated that the proposed easement for Hartung Farms will aid the Tri-County Airport in managing the surface water on the airport property. Neither the State of Wisconsin DOT Aeronautical staff or Wisconsin DNR have any issues the proposed easement.

 

            The proposed easement is attached hereto as Addendum A.
