Ziad Musallam, Fulton County Sanitary
Engineer - to Discuss Northeast Fulton County Water System
Resolution 2008-543
Resolution 2008-544 |
Mr. Musallam was present to update the
Board on the last meeting with the entities involved in the
Northeast Fulton County Water System. He stated that at this
time there are 3 stages that are to be initiated and requested
direction and authorization from the Board. He stated that the
1st stage was to proceed with the selection of an
Engineer. The ORC requires that a minimum of 3 Engineers are to
be evaluated by a point system if the project is outside the
public entity’s expertise. He stated that he currently has some
engineers on file and that some are outdated. In that case he
would need to do a formal Request For Qualifications and would
need authorization of the Board to do so. The next stage would
be to draft the water service agreements with the entities
involved. An agreement must be in place to address their
concerns and establish guidelines. He stated that
pre-applications are in place with funding agencies but the 3rd
stage is to submit a formal funding application for those loans
and grants. As the outcomes of those applications come in, a
better determination can be made as to the funding options
available for the project.
Commissioner Barnaby made the motion to
formally request qualifications for engineers and Commissioner
Short seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously.
Commissioner Barnaby made the motion to
authorize and direct the submission of funding applications for
the project and Commissioner Genter seconded the motion. Motion
carried unanimously. |

Vond Hall, County Administrator, updated
the board on his meeting with Life Flight billing and the EMS
Director. He stated that Life Flight will be able to get the
Medicare and Medicaid eligible bills submitted that are still
inside the 18 month window. Others are outside of that window
and must begin the process of them being written off. He
stated that there are some other big issues associated with the
EMS billing and that Life Flight are experts in this area and
will help to get these issues cleaned up as quickly as
