CHULA VISTA CITI' COU\CIL �fEETI\G OF: Apri_l. 'lp� 1973
ITEPiTITLE: Ordinance - Underground Utilities Procedural Ordinance -
Second r�eading and adoption
INITIATED BY: City Attorney
BACKGROUND
At the last Underground Utilities Advisory Committee meeting
held on November 16, 1972, it was suggested that our Enabling
Ordinance be reviewed 'and possibly revised to allow the formation
of an undergrounding utilities district without setting the
specific dates for accomplishing the work until a time near the
construction period.
As you know, under our present ordinance we approve the district
and set up the dates that the property owner must be ready to
receive underground service and the overhead utilities to be
removed - almost a year ahead of the construction time . It is
obviously a guess and many times we have had to move these
dates forward due to unforeseen delays .
In order to provide more flexibility, the attached ordinance
has been prepared which in addition to adopting the provisions
relative to establishing specific dates for accomplishing the
work, streamlines the ordinance so that it is very similar to
the undergrounding district ordinance of the City of San Diego.
It is felt this total updating is necessary at this time.
This ordinance was placed on first reading at the meeting of April 10, 1973.
