They need to hire a surveyor to draw up a plan with a description in order to record an easement at the county unfortunately.

FYI – we can definitely assist him/them with info about their mains. Sewer/Storm is complete for Safeway and water just needs a few tweaks.

Hi Kurt,
Thanks for contacting us.
A little history. Once the leak was located and shut off, I had asked our GIS Tech to verify if the City had ownership of the waterline or was it a private line. From what we can tell, there was never a City Easement recorded in the Clackamas County archives.
What we did find in our files was an approved Sanitary/Water Plan submitted to the City in 2000 for the Molalla Market Place and shows a “proposed easement” for both sanitary and water. However, the City or County has no record of this easement ever being recorded. Without a recorded easement for either, the City is not able to make the repairs.
Please let me know on how you would like to move forward?

Hello Jennifer;
I manage the Molalla Market Center 1515 W Main Street (Anchors = Safeway + McDonalds) and understand that you may be aware of a broken service line that connects to the Meter and then runs underneath the drive-lane, all in our Outer Parking Lot.
I am being told that either the City is working on repairing this line, or vice versa, that we are obligated to repair but don’t really know the cause of the break.
If you have any further information in this matter, know the size of the Water Service line or any other details, please contact me.
Thanks so much.
