. ITEM EXPLANATION (4/5TH'S 110TE REQUIRED YES_ N x )
On October 4 , 1977 , the City Council accepted a report on the feasibility
of undergrounding 69 thousand volt transmission lines:.and directed staff
to prepare Code changes necessary for the implementation of recommenda-
• tions incorporated therein. The recommendations made on said report were
the following:
A. The undergrounding of 69 KV transmission lines be included in the
City' s undergrounding program.
� B. The undergrounding of transmission lines be prioritized in accord-
ance with the adopted priority rating system.
C. Developers of land traversed by 69 KV transmission lines on common
poles with distribution lines not be required to underground such
transmission facilities. However, they should continue to be required
to underground all distribution lines as provided by the City Code.
D. Developers of land traversed by independently supported 69 KV lines
be required to underground such lines in the same manner as if dis-
tribution facilities were involved.
E. In instances where undergrounding of transmission lines is not re-
quired in conjunction with land development activities the developer
be required to agree to not object to the formation of a district
for the undergrounding of such transmission lines. This agreement
should be made in such a way as to be binding upon subsequent owners.
