None
Summary:
The proposed Grant of Easement to Southern California Edison (SCE) is for maintenance access to a transformer pad and to install an electrical meter on a pedestal located within the Placentia Champion Sports Complex. There is an existing wireless cell facility located on site that requires delivery of commercial power to become fully operational. The easement area is two strips of land lying within the property. Strip #1 will be 14 feet wide and Strip #2 will be 6 feet wide. In order for SCE to schedule the crews to perform the necessary work to provide power to the site, a strip easement is required for electrical meter installation and providing power to the existing systems in place.
Recommendation:
Recommended Action: It is recommended that the City Council take the following actions:
1. Approve the Grant of Easement to Southern California Edison for electric utility systems located at 611 Jefferson Street, Placentia Champion Sports Complex; and
2. Authorize the City Administrator and/or her designee to execute the Grant of Easement on behalf of the City in a form approved by the City Attorney.
3. Approve the Conveyance Agreement to convey a customer owned structure originally installed per a previous work order. Agreement for transfer of structure ownership only.
Strategic Plan Statement:
T h i s item is consistent with the City Council approved 5-Year Strategic Plan Goal 5, to Implement Public Infrastructure to Meet Community Needs.
Discussion:
DISH/Boost Wireless recently completed construction of a cell site located within Placentia Champions Sports Complex. SCE plans to install an electrical meter pedestal and deliver power to the cell site.
1 In order for SCE to move forward with scheduling the necessary work crews, two strip easements are required Attachment 1. This easement will grant SCE legal permission to install the new electrical meter on City property within Placentia Champion Sports Complex.
The inclusion of the easement is a critical step to facilitate the installation and ensure that all regulatory and safety measures are adhered to. Furthermore, there is a conveyance agreement for the concrete pad upon which an existing transformer currently sits. SCE would like to ensure the property owner (City) does not lay claim to the concrete pad and request that the concrete slab be conveyed to SCE Attachment 2. Attachment 3 provides a visual representation with aerial and street view imagery of the location within Placentia Champion Sports Complex where the abovementioned easement is proposed.
