Priority List and 5-Year Undergrounding Program

ITEM EXPLANATION (4/5TH'S VOTE REQUIRED YES NO x )
In November, 1972, the City Council approved a rating system for use in
prioritizing utility undergrounding projects within the City. The six-year
undergrounding program which followed was based upon that rating system.
However, during the course of the program it became necessary in several
instances to modify the relative order of the projects. In each instance,
the modification was necessitated by the associated construction of either
a public building or a street widening.
Because of the consistent need to modify the program to accommodate
associated construction, it appears that too little significance was attached
to that factor in the original rating system. It is therefore proposed that
the rating system be modified to more accurately reflect the Council's past
determinations.
Exhibit "A" shows the proposed revised rating system. Exhibit "B" is a
listing by priority number of undergrounding projects which would result
from the revised system.
Exhibit "C" is the undergrounding program which is proposed for implementa-
tion during the 5-year period from January, 1978 through December, 1982.
As can be seen, the greater importance given to associated construction has
the effect of bringing the Third Avenue projects to the top of the program,
where they must be if coordination with street widening for the Regional
Center is to be accomplished.
The Underground Utility Advisory Committee has considered the proposed
5-year program. The Director of Public Works will report verbally on the
committee's recommendation.
