Director of Public Works/City Engineer
The County of San Diego is proposing to widen Bonita Road from the
I-805 Freeway easterly to Willow Street. In conjunction with this
widening project the County is also proposing to underground the
overhead utility lines. A portion of their widening and under-
ground project lies within the boundaries of the City of Chula
Vista. The area of the City which lies within the proposed
undergrounding district is shown on the attached exhibit labeled
Bonita Road Underground Utility District.
The County Board of Supervisors adopted a Resolution of Intention to
form an underground utility district along Bonita Road between the
I-8o5 Freeway and Willow Street on October 15, 1974. The Resolution
of Intention along with the map entitled Bonita Road Underground
Utility District has been filed with the Clerk of the Board of
Supervisors as Document No. 495104. The Board of Supervisors set
a public hearing for November 13, 1974 at 9:30 A.M. in the Board
of Supervisors North Chamber to hear interested persons and to
ascertain whether the public health, safety or welfare requires
the removal of poles, overhead wires and associated overhead
structures, and the underground installation of wires and facilities
for supplying electric communication or similar associated service
in the district.

AGENDA ITEM N0. 7
Subplemental Sheet No. 1
The Board of Supervisors has conditioned their Resolution of Intention
that the creation of the underground utilities district is to be
contingent upon the City of Chula Vista formulating a district on
that portion of Bonita Road between Willow Street and Lynwood Drive
which lies within the City of Chula Vista. There will be no cost
to the City of Chula Vista for the undergrounding of overhead
facilities which lie within the City. The entire cost of under-
grounding the utilities within the district will be paid for by the
County out of funds allocated to the County by San Diego Gas &
Electric Company.
The portion of the district within the City of Chula Vista affects
only three properties. One of the properties currently has under-
ground services, one property is not developed and therefore has no
service and the third property will continue to receive overhead
service from a pole outside the boundaries of the proposed district.
A transparency is available for Council viewing.
Department Head Recommendation (Cont.):
ascertain whether the public necessity, health, safety or welfare
requires the removal of poles, overhead wires and associated over-
head structures and the underground installation of wires and
facilities for supplying electric communication for similar
associated service in the district hereinabove described.
