BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Director of Administrative Services / Deputy City
Clerk is hereby instructed to notify all affected utilities and all persons owning real property
within East Grand Avenue Utility District No. 7 of the adoption of this resolution within ten
(10) days after the date of such adoption. Said Director Of Administrative Services /
Deputy City Clerk shall further notify said property owners of the necessity that, if they or
any person occupying such property desires to continue to receive electrical,
telecommunication or other similar or associated service, they or such occupant shall, by
the date fixed in this resolution, provide all necessary facility changes on their premises so
as to receive such service from the lines of the supplying utility or utilities on file with the
Public Utilities Commission of the State of California. Such notification shall be made by
mailing a copy of this resolution,together with a copy of said section of the Municipal Code,
to affected property owners as such are shown on the last equalized assessment roll and
to the affected utilities.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Council hereby finds, based on substantial evidence
in the record of these proceedings, that the reasons for creation of such Underground
Utility District are as follows:
1. The undergrounding to be accomplished will avoid or eliminate an unusually
heavy concentration of overhead distribution facilities,
2. The streets, roads, or rights-of-way in the District are extensively used by the
general public and carry a heavy volume of pedestrian and vehicular traffic and
said undergrounding will promote the orderly control of such traffic.
3. The said streets, roads or rights-of-way adjoin or pass through a civic area,
consequently, such underground is more efficient than any other method and
adds to the aesthetic appearance of the area so undergrounded.
On motion of Council Member Dickens, seconded by Council Member Costello, and on the
following roll call vote, to wit:
AYES: Council Members Dickens, Costello, Runels, Lubin and Mayor Ferrara
NOES: None
ABSENT: None
the foregoing Resolution was passed and adopted this 25th day of March, 2003.
