Formation of the district will require that the owners of property within the district convert their electrical service to receive underground facilities on a date to be set in the future. The cost of converting the electrical service connection will be borne by the property owner. The Director of Public Works will submit to the City Council a resolution setting the date for property owners to be ready to receive underground facilities and removal of poles in accordance with the Chula Vista City Code. The submission of the resolution to set the dates will occur sub- sequent to San Diego Gas & Electric's scheduling of the project. The estimated cost of undergrounding utilities along "F" Street is $368,000. Street safety lighting will be maintained on "F" Street by installing a street lighting system with the street widening project. The City can borrow up to $200,000 from future apportionments if an under- grounding project is precedent or concurrent with a street widening project. There will be ample funds to underground the utilities during calendar year 1977.
