6. PUBLIC HEARING CONSIDERATION TO WAIVE UNDERGROUNDING REQUIREMENTS
FOR HILLTOP TERRACES, CHULA VISTA TRACT 82-6 (CITY
ENGINEER)
This being the time and place advertised, Mayor Cox opened the public
hearing.
In his written report to Council, City Engineer Lippitt stated that on
March lO, 1981, The Utility Company, private consultants working on behalf
of the Dale Building Company (Gersten) requested waiver of the requirement
to underground existing overhead utilities within the Hilltop Terrace
Subdivision. The staff's recommendation is to {1) require the owners to
enter into an agreement stipulating that they or their successors in
interest will not oppose the formation of an underground utility district
prior to approval of the final map for the subdivision; {2) require the
owner to provide security for that segment across Lot 1 in the amount of
~21,000 prior to approval of the final map; (3) require the owner to grant
easements to San Diego Gas & Electric Company for underground facilities
City Council Meeting - 4 - May 4, 1982
within Lots 1 and 6 as determined by said utility prior to approval of the
final map.
Council discussion followed regarding requiring a lien against the
property; the cost of undergrounding; the property will be owned by
condominiums and not the property owner and what will happen after five
years if the bond is not repaid; establishing a fixed time period for
repayment of the bond.
Mr. Don Robinson, 1135 Camino Del Mar, Del Mar, representing The Utility
Company and Getsten Company stated that there is a change in the Lot number
assignment - instead of Lot 6, it should be Lot 4. Mr. Robinson remarked
that the Getsten Company prefers the waiver of the underground utilities
rather than a deferral. He explained that the line in question (along Lot
l) is a feeder line as opposed to a distribution line, the difference is
the wire size, cost, removal of the pole and the cable which cannot be
spliced. Mr. Robinson added that there are no development plans for Lot 1
at this time and it could be zoned commercial. As to the cost estimate, it
is $21,000 but it can go as high as $37,000.
There being no further comment, either for or against, the hearing was
declared closed.
Councilman Scott felt the project was large enough to afford having the
utilities go underground at this time.
