Agenda Analysis

Analysis

This ordinance authorizes the granting of four temporary utility easements and one permanent underground utility easement to the Electric Power Board on certain properties owned by the Metropolitan Government between 1st Avenue North, Gay Street, and the Cumberland River.

The four temporary easements would be used for erecting, maintaining, repairing, rebuilding, operating, and patrolling electric overhead. The easements would automatically terminate when the overhead facilities are removed from the site.

The permanent underground utility easement would be used for underground conductors, conduits, transformers and switchgears, with all necessary equipment, and would extend for approximately 71 feet between the eastern margin Union Street and the western margin of Gay Street.
