Board approves permanent waterline easement with City of Columbia for future high-school site work

The board voted to approve a permanent waterline easement in favor of the City of Columbia, a step tied to potential future parking and site work at Columbia High School.

Administration said the easement was part of an ongoing conversation about whether to relocate or deepen an existing water line as the district contemplates a parking-lot project on high-school property. “The administration um recommends that the board approve the easement of the waterline agreement with the city of Colombia as presented,” the administrator said. Board members moved, seconded and recorded a unanimous roll-call approval.
