Subject: Southern California Edison Findings Justifying an Overhead Design of 220kV Generation Tie Line – Gabriel Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) Dear City of Irwindale Planning Division,
Southern California Edison (SCE) respectfully submits this response to the City of Irwindale’s July 30, 2025, letter regarding the proposed overhead design for the 220kV generation tie line associated with the Gabriel Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). We understand the City’s interest in exploring underground alternatives. After review, SCE has determined that an overhead configuration of the 220kv transmission line is required and offers the following findings justifying the requirement for an overhead configuration:
Thermal and Ampacity Constraints
Underground cables are more prone to thermal buildup. Faults can cause localized heating that damages insulation and surrounding duct banks, complicating fault detection and requiring cable ampacity derating, which negatively impacts system performance and interferes with the operation of utility facilities.
Construction Complexity
Underground installation requires extensive civil work, including several 30' x 6' duct banks, manholes, and vaults, which would disrupt traffic, pedestrian rights-of-way, and local infrastructure. Existing third-party underground utilities would need to be relocated, adding complexity and cost.
Restoration and Access Limitations - Underground Systems Underground faults are significantly more difficult to detect and repair than overhead faults, often resulting in longer outage durations. Restoration of high-voltage underground faults— such as those in 220kV systems—can take weeks to months, due to the need for excavation, permitting, coordination with other utilities, and environmental constraints. In contrast, overhead faults are typically resolved within hours to days.
The proposed underground system would be buried beneath roads, sidewalks, and other infrastructure, requiring traffic control, civil excavation, and municipal coordination to access faulted segments. These requirements introduce logistical complexity and further extend outage timelines.
ATTACHMENT "F"
Additionally, working within confined underground vaults or manholes presents serious safety risks, including potential gas accumulation, electrical hazards, and limited egress, which complicate emergency response and worker safety.
Design Standards
SCE does not currently have design standards for underground 220kV transmission lines.
Proceeding without these standards would introduce significant design risks and uncertainties.
Cost Considerations
Underground 220kV lines can cost 3 to 5 times more than overhead construction, significantly impacting both project economics and ratepayer protections.
Land Rights
SCE may need to acquire a new underground easement from the city in lieu of relying on existing franchise rights due to the nature and complexity of the infrastructure.
Regulatory Context
The 220kV transmission line extending from the BESS project site over the City right of way is part of SCE electric facilities upon completion and connection to the SCE substation. The construction, operation, and maintenance of SCE electric facilities is governed by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) through General Order 131-E which holds that, “local jurisdictions acting pursuant to local authority are preempted from regulating electric power line projects, distribution lines, substations, or electric facilities constructed by public utilities subject to the Commission’s jurisdiction.”
Conclusion
In light of the regulatory, technical, environmental, and financial considerations outlined above, Southern California Edison (SCE) has determined that the overhead design for the 220kV generation tie line associated with the Gabriel Project is the most necessary, practical and costeffective solution and is therefore the required design. The overhead configuration not only aligns with existing design standards and regulatory requirements but also mitigates the
significant design and safety risks as well as operational and cost impacts associated with underground installations. We appreciate the City of Irwindale's interest in exploring alternatives and remain committed to working collaboratively to ensure the successful completion of this critical infrastructure project.
Sincerely,
Dalton Cobb

Attached are the maps of the water lines that are on Live Oak Ave by Gateway. The clearest map would be the page 4 of the attached PDF. The blue lines shown on there are the locations of the water lines. Please note that the water company said these are “for information only. Distances and locations may be distorted and not suitable for legal, engineering, or surveying purposes” I asked Valley County Water if they knew the depths of the lines but they stated that we would need to pothole to verify. Looks like this is the best they can offer.
I reached out to So Cal Gas and am waiting to hear back from them. Once we receive those, I’ll forward them over to you.
Thank you,

Re: SoCalGas Comments Regarding Aypa Power’s Overhead Generation Tie-Line Request – Gabriel Battery Energy Storage Project
City of Irwindale Planning Division:
SoCalGas has reviewed Aypa Power’s proposed Gabriel Battery Energy Storage Project and identified the location where the proposed 220 kV electrical tie-line would intersect an existing 8-inch High Pressure (HP) SoCalGas natural gas pipeline along Live Oak Avenue in Irwindale, CA. SoCalGas’ review of the project scope and field data indicates a low risk of interference with our Cathodic Protection.
In addition, the existing 8-inch gas main is classified as a HP line and therefore a high-priority substructure. The greatest risk to SoCalGas pipeline facilities is third-party dig-ins, particularly around HP lines. For this reason, SoCalGas Distribution is in alignment with an aboveground installation of the proposed 220kV electrical tie-line rather than an underground installation to reduce excavation-related risks and help maintain the safety and integrity of HP facilities critical to SoCalGas operations.
Sincerely,
Dustin Tomlinson

Re: Findings in Support of Overhead Generation Tie-Line Variance - Gabriel Battery Energy Storage System (BESS)
File 0060332.01
To: City of Irwindale, Planning Division
From: Brandon Farrell, Director, Transmission Engineering - Westwood City of Irwindale Planning Division:
Westwood respectfully submits these findings (Findings) in support of the generation tie-line (gen-tie) variance request for the Gabriel Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) project. The Findings demonstrate that an overhead transmission design across Live Oak Avenue in the City of Irwindale, California is the sole feasible and safe design option, required to achieve reliable interconnection and ensure compliance with applicable municipal and state standards.
Westwood is a multi-disciplinary engineering firm, established in 1972, with decades of experience in overhead and underground transmission lines. Our team of Civil, Electrical, and Mechanical engineers have supported projects for investor-owned-utilities, municipalities, and developers of Wind, Solar, and BESS assets throughout the country, including in the state of California. Through the various services at Westwood, we are well versed in all facets of these projects at all stages of the project lifecycle, from preliminary planning to execution of construction.
We are confident in our assessment of the Live Oak Avenue crossing and the concerns with approaching this crossing using an underground circuit.
The technical and engineering findings confirm that undergrounding the Gabriel BESS gentie across Live Oak Avenue is not a feasible or consistent design option under applicable standards.
Both underground and overhead approaches would require structures exceeding 65 feet in height, with undergrounding introducing added design and construction complications, including either jack-and-bore pits or open trenches with extended road closures. The underground option also introduces utility conflicts, future risks to contractors working on those utilities, ADA compliance cocnerns, and significant public disruption. By contrast, an overhead crossing aligns with existing utility infrastructure in the corridor, ensures compliance with the Irwindale Specific Plan, Municipal Code, and electrical safety standards, and minimizes both construction impacts and long-term maintenance risks. Westwood’s Findings—together with those submitted by Southern California ATTACHMENT "J"
MEMORANDUM
Edison (SCE)—demonstrate that approval of the requested variance is necessary for the Gabriel BESS to proceed safely, efficiently, and in full consistency with Irwindale Zoning Code §17.32.06.
MEMORANDUM
Findings
1. Exceptional or Extraordinary Circumstances
There is currently significant overhead electrical infrastructure in and around the properties in question for the crossing of Live Oak Avenue. These lines range from low-voltage distribution lines to high-voltage transmission lines of significant height. A requirement to cross underneath Live Oak Ave would be inconsistent with the other power line crossings in this area.
With an overhead approach, height of new structures will depend greatly on the placement of the structure within the SCE yard and the number of overhead electrical crossings in that path. Due to the distribution-level circuits adjacent to Live Oak Avenue, the new transmission structures will need to be greater than 65’ above ground height to allow for clearances that meet the minimum code requirements (EX. National Electric Safety Code, California General Order 95). While we cannot accurately confirm the height of those assets along the road at this time, the circuits are likely 25ft above ground, on the lower end. A 220kV riser structure would utilize a phase spacing of roughly 15ft between phases and shield wires, totaling about 45ft for the “power space.” Additionally, NESC requires roughly 7ft of clearance between the 220kV phases and the existing lines, assuming voltage is somewhere between 22kV and 69kV. This would result in a structure of at least 80ft tall, which is a conservative estimate pending further review of the assets along Live Oak Avenue. The existing structures that support crossings over Live Oak Avenue within 100 Yards of this crossing are currently well in excess of 65’ in height. The need for structures exceeding 65’ would not constitute granting a special privilege inconsistent with the limitations on the property in the vicinity and identical zone. With the underground design approach, the riser structure will still be required to exceed 65’ above ground height to allow for the wires to cross over the existing overhead electric on the South side of Live Oak Avenue. Effectively, the 65’ height requirement is infeasible with either approach.
An underground transmission line crossing Live Oak Ave involves unique challenges due to the need for trenchless Jack & Bore installation. This would require a large jacking pit on the north side of Live Oak Ave, and a slightly smaller exit pit, approximately 25'L x 15'W x 20'D, necessitating significant lane closures and utility relocation. If a jack & bore approach was not used in favor of a more traditional duct-bank installation, significant roadway closures would be needed for the duration that the trench is open during construction. As such, the Jack & Bore approach would be typical to avoid lane closures. However, due to inability to place an Aypa-owned structure within the SCE yard, the Jack & Bore pits would have to be within Live Oak Avenue, causing significant lane closures regardless. Westwood has typically seen crossings of this size require 3-5 weeks to construct, inclusive of road repairs. It would be reasonable to assume that road disruptions would be measured in a timeline of weeks, ersus the overhead conductor pulls which would last only minutes at a time.
MEMORANDUM
2. Special Property Circumstances.
Placement of overhead powerlines and structures on this property is consistent with the use of surrounding parcels. There are currently numerous overhead transmission crossings within 100 yards of the proposed crossing, some of significant height. Placement of an overhead powerline crossing in this area does not constitute a special privilege not afforded to other asset owners similarly situated. The requirement to bore underground would be considered the exception to the rule in this area.
As previously mentioned, with the use of an underground design, and the requirement to maintain the Point of Connection Pole (PCO) outside of the SCE yard, the only location to place a Riser structure would be within the sidewalk between Live Oak Avenue and the SCE yard wall due to the requirement at SCE that the underground portion of the gen-tie must remain outside of their yard. This constraint, coupled with ADA compliance and safety issues due to sidewalk placement, distinguishes this site from others where underground lines can be developed without such complications. The complexity of existing utilities adds substantial risk, increasing the chance of damage and service interruptions. To place a riser structure in this location would also require modification to the existing overhead lines on the South side of Live Oak Avenue to maintain proper electrical clearances. In addition to the modifications to the existing infrastructure, the riser structure would be required to provide the same electrical clearances as an overhead crossing of the roadway, resulting in a structure in excess of 65ft whether the crossing is overhead or underground. As noted previously, Westwood would anticipate the riser structure to be 80ft tall, at a minimum, to clear the existing circuits safely and may be taller depending on the placement of the next structure within the SCE yard.
3. Physical Hardship.
The requirement for the installation of an underground transmission line crossing across Live Oak Ave. would constitute a physical hardship not only to Aypa and SCE but, more importantly, for the public. Installation of an underground crossing would require a lengthy disturbance including closure of Live Oak Ave to allow for construction of the crossing, as previously noted, whether a traditional duct-bank design or a jack & bore approach is utilized. Additionally, the riser structure on the south side of Live Oak Avenue would not be allowed inside SCE’s property and would be required to be placed in the public ROW. This structure would need to be a self-supporting steel structure and would impede the existing sidewalk and violate ADA compliance without major rework impacting the road for an extended period of time. Placement of this structure will impact the existing overhead electric facilities on the south side of Live Oak Avenue as well, resulting in additional costs and disruptions to services.
MEMORANDUM
Future maintenance of Live Oak Ave, including maintenance on existing infrastructure in Live Oak Ave (water, sewer, gas, etc.) would be more difficult and dangerous with a high voltage underground crossing in place. Conversely, the construction of an overhead powerline crossing would produce relatively short durations of traffic disturbance on Live Oak Ave. The wires could be installed over Live Oak Ave. within one day and likely would only require rolling traffic stops for roughly 15 min at a time. The wires would be located high above ground level and would not present a risk to any person or equipment that is in the vicinity.
4. No Detriment to Public Welfare
It is our opinion that the presence of an overhead transmission line crossing will provide less impact to the public then to an underground transmission line crossing. Construction of an overhead crossing will have minimal impact on traffic and the existing sidewalks on Live Oak Ave. An underground crossing will require disturbance to the sidewalk on the south side of Live Oak Ave due to the presence of a riser pole (since this pole can not be located on SCE Property). Construction of an underground crossing will be complicated due to the presence of existing utilities such as gas, water, and sewer that are currently installed in Live Oak Ave. Traffic disturbance will be greatly increased with the underground crossing option, requiring shut down of lanes for numerous days (or even weeks). Maintenance of the existing utilities and road surface on and in Live Oak Ave will be more difficult with the presence of an underground crossing since any excavation would be in proximity to buried energized 220kV transmission line. Despite the crossing being underground, the necessary riser poles contribute to visual clutter just the same as the overhead crossing, though they may be shorter than the overhead crossing approach. An overhead crossing would present minimal increased visual disturbance as there are currently numerous overhead crossings in this area already. The addition of one additional overhead crossing would not present new viewshed disturbances to the public. It is also worth noting that the nearest non-utility infrastructure to this crossing appear to be industrial buildings approximately 0.15 miles away. There are additional commercial properties within 0.5 miles and residential properties outside of 0.5 miles, behind the commercial properties. Visibility of this crossing to residences would be almost non-existent, as a result.

3. DEVELOPER’S OBLIGATIONS
3.1 Community Benefit – DA Payment. Should the City, in its sole discretion, approve in connection with the Project (i) the SPDR, (ii) the Variance, and (iii) a second reading and adoption of ordinance approving this Agreement, then within 30 days of the latest of such events to occur, [and provided this Agreement is fully executed and in effect], Developer shall tender to the City Treasurer a one-time cash payment to the City in the amount of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00) (the “Initial DA Payment”). Within 30 days of the issuance of the certificate of occupancy for the Project, Developer shall tender to the City Treasurer a one-time cash payment to the City in the amount of Six Million Dollars ($6,000,000.00) (“Final DA Payment”) The Initial DA Payment and Final DA Payment shall be collectively referred to throughout this Agreement as the “DA Payment,” to be utilized by the City at its discretion to use for future community public benefits to the City overall. For the sake of clarity, to the extent the City decides to use the DA Payment on a community public benefit project, such project is a separate project with independent utility from the Project, for which Developer shall not be responsible for processing any entitlements. The City shall include Developer in, and publicly recognized Developer’s contribution during, all ceremonies celebrating any community public benefit projects funded or partially funded by the DA Payment. The Parties agree to cooperate in good faith to prepare and process the appropriate documentation for such contribution, including
8 by providing such documentation reasonably requested by a Party for tax reporting and tax credit purposes.
3.2 Community Benefit – Employment Outreach for Local Residents. A goal of the City with respect to this Project and other major projects within the City is to foster employment opportunities for Irwindale residents. To that end, Developer covenants that with respect to the construction, operation and maintenance of the Project, Developer shall make reasonable efforts to cause all solicitations for full or part-time, new or replacement, employment relating to the construction, operation and maintenance of the Project to be advertised in such a manner as to target local City residents. Developer shall also notify the City of jobs available at the Project such that the City may inform City residents of job availability at the Project. Developer will inform any new owner of the Project (as set forth in Section 11) or new lessee of the Property of the provisions of these requirements.
Nothing in this paragraph shall require Developer to offer employment to individuals who are not otherwise qualified for such employment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 3.2 are not intended, and shall not be construed, to benefit or be enforceable by any person whatsoever other than City or to require Developer to violate any labor law.
3.3 Community Benefit – Project Sales & Use Tax Covenant.
3.3.1. Developer acknowledges that one of the material inducements for the City’s approval of this Agreement is the expectation that the Project will generate substantial local Sales and Use Tax Revenue. Developer therefore covenants and agrees that the City shall receive a total of at least Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00) in Project Sales and Use Tax Revenue (“Guaranteed Revenue Amount”).
3.3.2. Within thirty (30) days after Developer’s receipt of a Certificate of Occupancy for the Project, Developer shall provide to the City a list identifying the legal names, as may be registered with the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration, of all tax-paying contractors and or suppliers subcontractorsed involved in the Project (“by Developer (“List of Contractors”) on the first day of each quarter, commencing on April 1, 2026 and ending on the end of the first full City fiscal year following issuance of the certificate of occupancy for the Project (unless Developer sooner notifies the City that all Sales and Use Tax related to Project construction has been remitted in which case it may cease providing List of Contractors” quarterly updates).
Developer acknowledges that the City’s ability to identify and credit Sales and Use Tax Revenue attributable to the Project depends on accurate contractor registrationand supplier information. Accordingly, if any contractor or subcontractorsupplier fails to provide such legally registered name or provides inaccurate or incomplete information, the City may be unable to properly credit the corresponding Sales and Use Tax Revenue toward the Project. Developer hereby waives any claim against the City attributable to any such under-crediting by the City resulting from inaccurate or incomplete contractor registrationor supplier information provided to the City.
3.3.3.FThirty (30) days following the last to occur of (i) the end of the first full City fiscal year following issuance of the certificate of occupancy for the Project, (ii) the City’s
9 receipt of the List of Contractors, and once(iii) the date that the CDTFA data reflecting Project-related allocations becomes available, tthe City shall provide Developer with an accounting, (ia) identifying the aggregate amount of all Project Sales and Use Tax Revenue received by the City to date in relation to the Project, and (iib) to the extent not prohibited by law, a summary of the information relied upon by the City in making its determination..
3.3.4. If the City reasonably determines that the amount of Project Sales and Use Tax Revenue received by the City is less than $5,000,000.00, the City shall invoice Developer (“Invoice Date”) for the difference (i.e., $5,000,000.00 less the amount of Project Sales and Use Tax Revenue actually received) (“Shortfall Amount”).
Developer shall have thirty (30) days after receipt of such invoice to either (i) remit payment to the City Treasurer of the Shortfall Amount, or (ii) provide written comments or additional information to the City relevant to the City’s calculation. The City shall consider any such information in good faith and no later than thirty (30) days following the receipt of any such information from Developer, the City shall notify Developer in writing whether its determination of the Project Sales and Use Tax Revenue has changed and, if so, issue a revised invoice to Developer. Developer will remit payment to the City Treasurer within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice or revised invoice. If CDTFA later adjusts and lowers the Sales & Use Tax Revenue paid by any of the persons or entities set forth on the List of Contractors for any reason (i.e. audit, etc.), the City shall issue a revised invoice to Developer.
Developer will remit payment to the City Treasurer within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice or revised invoice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Developer shall have no obligation to remit any additional payments after the date that is the three (3) year anniversary of the Invoice Date.
3.4 Financial Assurance for Decommissioning. To ensure the safe decommissioning of the Project, upon the issuance of a temporary occupancy permit or occupancy permit, Developer and/or operator of the battery energy storage facility shall continuously maintain a financial assurance or security, payable to the City, in a form and amount required by the BESS Ordinance. The security mayshall be in the form of a parent company guaranty, performance bond, letter of credit, or if an alternative form of security is used, an alternative form of security approved by the City.surety bond. The financial assurance shall be maintained for the duration of the use of the Project. All costs shall be borne solely by the Developer. Developer and/or operatorshall submit to City an initial analysis proposing the estimated amount of the financial assurance (the “Initial Decommissioning Report”) prior to the issuance of the building permit; provided, however, Developer may replace the Initial Decommissioning Report with a final decommissioning report, which it shall provide to the City at least ninety (90) days prior to the estimated date of issuance of the certificate of occupancy. The City shall consider any such information in good faith and no later than thirty (30) days following the receipt of any such information from Developer, the City shall notify Developer in writing of its determination. The amount of financial assurances shall be adjusted every three (3) years to account for any increase or decrease in costs.
Developer and/or operator shall submit written revisions to financial assurances to the Finance DirectorCity Treasurer each year, thirty days prior to the anniversary date of the initial financial assurances approved by the City. If written revisions to the financial
10 assurances are not provided, the operatorDeveloper shall explain, in writing, thirty days prior to such anniversary date, why revisions were not necessary. The Finance DirectorCity Treasurer may require further revisions and/or explanation from the operatorDeveloper if the submission is found to be inadequate.
3.5 Community Benefit – Fire Safety Training. Developer shall pay for a third-party expert to provide training(s) every three (3) years commencing sixty (60) days following issuance of the certificate of occupancy, until termination of the Term of this Agreement, for the County of Los Angeles Fire Department and Irwindale Police Department employees on the proper strategies for safely responding to a BESS fire incident. Developer agrees to cooperate with any and all annual audits conducted by the Los Angeles County Fire Department.
3.6 Satisfaction of Developer Obligations. Developer’s obligations identified in Section 3 of this Agreement shall be deemed satisfied if the City does not approve any encroachment agreement (by separate approval), Variance (by separate approval) the SPDR, and other Project Development Approvals required to commence construction of the Project.

4.1 Scope of Developer’s Vested Right. Subject to the Reservation of Authority set forth in Article 5, Developer shall have the vested right to develop the Project to the full extent permitted under the Applicable Laws as of the Vested Rights Date and compliance with this Agreement (“Developer’s Vested Right”).

Except as otherwise provided under the terms of this Agreement, the rules, regulations and official policies governing permitted uses of the Property, the density and intensity of use of the Property, the maximum height and size of proposed buildings and structures, and the design, improvement and construction standards and specifications applicable to the Development of the Property, shall be as set forth in the Existing Land Use Regulations which were in full force and effect as of the Vested Rights Date, subject to the terms of this Agreement. For the sake of clarity, the Parties agree that standards set forth in the Specific Plan and Variance prevail over any conflicting standards set forth in the Existing Land Use Regulations, including the BESS Ordinance. If the City adopts a Subsequent Land Use Regulation against which the Developer holds a Vested Right, the Developer may, in its sole discretion, partially waive its Vested Right in writing and be subject to the Subsequent Land Use Regulation.
4.3 Rights under State and Federal Law. Developer shall retain all rights it has under state and federal law, including, but not limited to, Developer’s rights under Government Code § 65865.2, which provides that subsequent discretionary actions shall not prevent development of the Property for the uses and to the density or intensity of development set forth in the Project Development Approvals.

Moreover, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as requiring the Developer to commence or complete Project if it is not economically feasible.

Subject to the provisions of Section 4.6 below, the City shall accept for processing, review and action all applications for Subsequent Development Approvals, and such applications shall be processed in the manner for processing such matters in accordance with the Existing Land Use Regulations.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties acknowledge that subject to the Existing Land Use Regulations, the City is not obligated to approve any Subsequent Development Approval, or to approve any Subsequent Development Approval with or without any particular condition. Except as limited by Developer’s Vested Right, the City reserves its full police power and this Agreement shall not prevent City from denying or conditionally approving any application for a Subsequent Development Approval.
4.6 Role of Project Development Approvals.

5.8.1. Processing Fees. Developer shall pay all City-wide published processing fees and charges of every kind and nature lawfully imposed by City to cover the estimated actual costs to City of processing applications for or monitoring compliance with Project Development Approvals. For the sake of clarity, the parties agree that the Existing Land Use Regulations require a development impact fee of $0.00 because the unmanned project does not contain permanent habitable industrial space to which a Development Impact Fee could be assessed.
5.8.2. Taxes, Licenses & Permits, User Fees, and All Other User Fees & Service Charges. and Development Impact Fees. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, Developer shall pay all existing types of fees and charges which are standard and uniformly-applied to similar projects in the City, which may be increased from time-to-time in accordance with cost of living or cost of construction indices or other current schedules or by other incremental means in accordance with applicable law. If any other fee or chargedevelopment impact fee exclusive to a BESS project does not exist as of the Vesteding Rights Date, and Project operations remain the same as described in Recital E and Section 5.8.3(a) below, then Developer shall not be obligatedsubject to pay such fee for chargea (i) period of thirty (30) years following the City’s issuance of the final Certificate of Occupancy for the Project, or (ii) the Term of this Agreement, whichever occurs sooner. In the event Project operations materially deviate from representations made in this Section 5.8, the City’s determinations and the applicability of the development impact fee protections of this subsection shall no longer apply, and the Project shall be subject to any development impact fees applicable to its actual operations at the time any new building permits are issued.
5.8.3. General Charges. Nothing herein shall prohibit the application of the following, if lawfully imposed upon the Property and is a type of fee or charge not already addressed by Section 5.8.1 or 5.8.2 of this Agreement:
(a) Developer, or Developer’s Project occupants, shall be obligated to pay any feesapplicable fees, charges, or taxes, and lawful increases thereof, imposed on a City-wide basis such as business license, whether adopted by the City Council or by voter-approved initiative, as set forth in the City’s Charter, Municipal Code, or in a resolution adopted by the City Council, each as amended.

(d) Developer, or Developer’s Project occupants, shall be obligated to pay any utility service fees and charges, including amended rates thereof, for City services such as electrical utility charges, water rates, and sewer rates.
5.9 Inconsistencies. It is expressly agreed that in the event of any clear and explicit conflict between the provisions or conditions of the EIR, the Existing Land Use Regulations, this Agreement, and the Project Development Approvals (other than the EIR), then the provisions or conditions of the following shall prevail in this order:
(a) EIR;
(b) this Agreement;
(c) Variance
(d) Specific Plan and Zone Change No. 02-2022;
(e) Project Development Approvals (other than the EIR); and (f) Existing Land Use Regulations
For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree that, when determining whether a clear and explicit conflict exists between the provisions or conditions of the documents listed above in this Section 5.9, the fact that one provision or condition may be more detailed than another provision or condition relating to the same subject matter, or that a provision or condition related to a given subject matter may be contained in one document whereas another document is silent on the subject matter, does not, on its own, create a clear and explicit conflict. In such circumstances, the provision or condition in each document shall be read to be consistent with one another.
5.10 Exercise of Project Development Approval. Notwithstanding anything herein, in the Specific Plan, or in the IMC to the contrary, pursuant to Section 65865.2 of the Development Agreement Law, Project Development Approvals shall not expire during the term of this Agreement on the grounds that Developer failed to exercise the Project Development Approvals within a specified period of time after their approval.
