RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION: 1. Hold public hearing. 2. Discussion. 3. Read by title only. 4. Adopt Resolution. BRIEF SUMMARY: On November 11, 1991, the City of E1 Segundo executed a cooperative agreement with Caltrans and the City of Manhattan Beach for the widening of Sepulveda Boulevard, generally between Marine Avenue in Manhattan Beach and E1 Segundo Boulevard in E1 Segundo. Under this agreement, Caltrans is the lead agency for design and construction. Attached is the City Engineer's report which identifies the funding to finance the estimated $3.3 million for design and construction of the undergrounding project. The project funding includes costs for providing up to one hundred feet (1001) of underground service connections to private properties that currently have overhead service. ATTACHED SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS: 1. City Engineer's Report. 2. Resolution. FISCAL IMPACT: (Check one) Operating Budget: Amount Requested: Project /Account Budget: Project /Account Balance: Account Number: Project Phase: Appropriation Required: continued on next page.... N/A Capital Improvement Budget: N/A Date: Yes No XX - 1 of 2 - *tv". BRIEF SUMMARY: (continued) Caltrans is currently finalizing design plans and anticipates completion of design in early 1996. As part of the widening project, it is proposed to underground the existing overhead utility lines on both the eastside and westside of Sepulveda Boulevard, between Rosecrans Avenue and E1 Segundo Boulevard. The Southern California Edison Company, which owns both the power poles and overhead power lines, will be the lead agency for the design and construction of the undergrounding project. The following is a summary of the procedure for implementation of an Underground Utility District as described in Section 14.08 of the E1 Segundo Municipal Code: The City Council holds a public hearing to ascertain whether public necessity, health, safety, or welfare requires removal of existing overhead utilities. After receiving input from affected persons, the City Council may, by resolution, establish an Underground Utility District. Subsequent to the establishment of the District, Southern California Edison Company designs and undergrounds the existing overhead utilities. Concurrent with the construction of the undergrounding project, abutting property owners who currently have overhead service are required to perform modifications to receive underground service. After completion of the project construction, Edison removes all existing overhead lines and utility poles within the District. On September 19, 1995, the City Council set the date of Public Hearing for October 17, 1995. Staff is recommending City Council hold the public hearing and adopt the enclosed resolution establishing the Underground Utility District. All affected private and public property owners have been notified of the public hearing and invited to provide comments. Staff previously has held an informational meeting with Edison Company and property owners and received no opposition to the proposed district. - 2 of 2 - PW CON M (10/105) 008 CITY ENGINEER'S REPORT UNDERGROUND UTILITY DISTRICT NO. 4 (District) Date of Public Hearin: October 17, 1995 Location: Sepulveda Boulevard right -of -way (State Highway Route 1) between south City limits to two hundred (200) north of centerline of El Segundo Boulevard. Description: The right -of -way of Sepulveda Boulevard (State Highway Route 1) from a line 200 feet north and parallel to the centerline of El Segundo Boulevard, said centerline also being the north section lines of Section 13 and Section 18, southerly to the centerline of Rosecrans Avenue, said centerline also being the south section lines of Section 13 and Section 18. Backeround: Sepulveda Boulevard is currently a six (6) lane highway. Caltrans, which has jurisdiction over the highway, is proposing a project to widen Sepulveda Boulevard from its current six (6) lanes to eight (8) lanes. The proposed widening extends into the City of Manhattan Beach, south of El Segundo City limits, however the District boundaries are within El Segundo City limits. Sepulveda Boulevard within the proposed District currently has overhead electrical utilities (both distribution and transmission) belonging to Southern California Edison Company (Edison). These utilities are supported by a total of fifty -two (52) power poles on both the eastside and westside of the Highway. Caltrans original project scope called for relocating these power poles to the back of the new curbline of the widened roadway. Subsequently, this concept has been modified to underground the overhead utilities prior to the street widening in lieu of relocating the overhead utilities. Procedures for Formation of the District: City Municipal Code Chapter 14.08 (Attachment A) stipulates procedures to be followed for creation of an Underground Utility District in the City. 1, 1 .. City Engineer's Report: Section 14.08.030 of the Municipal Code requires that the City Engineer shall submit a report at the Public Hearing relative to the formation of an underground Utility District. Consultation with all affected Utilities: It has been determined that only overhead utilities belonging to Edison are affected by the District. Edison has been consulted regarding the formation of this District (No. 4). Costs: (1) Total estimated project cost $ 3,300,000 (2) Funding Plan: Caltrans $ 425,000 Los Angeles County Rule 20A $ 1,000,000 (Attachment B) City of El Segundo $ 1,875,000 (From MTA grant per City -MTA Memorandum of Understanding dated 11/2/93) Total identified funds $ 3,300,000 Impact on Property Owners: The project limits were field reviewed with Edison to determine the impact of the proposed underground conversion on property owners abutting Sepulveda Boulevard. Attachment C (Pages 1 of 2 and 2 of 2) shows details of properties and existing overhead services that need to be converted to underground service in conjunction with the Underground District. The total estimated cost of the underground conversions to affected property owners is $ 11,000. 0 010 Estimate of Time: It is estimated that the time required to complete the underground installation and removal of overhead facilities from the date of establishment of the Underground District is eighteen (18) months CITY -ENG W4 (10/10/95) O1] EL SEGUNDO MUNICIPAL CODE Page 14 -21 Title 14 - PUBLIC UTILITIES Chapter 14.08 UNDERGROUNDING Sections: 14.08.010 DEFINITIONS. 14.08.020 PUBLIC HEARING BY COUNCIL. 14.08.030 REPORT BY CITY ENGINEER. 14.08.040 COUNCIL MAY DESIGNATE UNDERGROUND UTILITY DISTRICTS BY RESOLUTION. 14.08.050 UNLAWFUL ACTS. 14.08.060 EXCEPTION, EMERGENCY OR UNUSUAL CIRCUMSTANCES. 14.08.070 OTHER EXCEPTIONS. 14.08.080 NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNERS AND UTILITY COMPANIES. 14.08.090 RESPONSIBILITY OF UTILITY COMPANIES. 14.08.100 RESPONSIBILITY OF PROPERTY OWNERS. 14 08.110 RESPONSIBILITY OF CITY. 14.08.120 EXTENSION OF TIME. 14.08.010 DEFINITIONS.

As you know, because of the regional significance of the route I have previously committed $100,000 towards to the cost of the right- of-way acquisition. r believe that the undergrounding of the utilities will considerably improve this area and while I as unable to cover the entire cost of that work, I am willing to contribute up to :1,000,000 toward the cost. It is always a pleasure to work with you and your city and I am happy that I am able to join in the improvement project for this portion of Sepulveda Boulevard in the City of 21 Segundo.
