this option, and authorize the Director of Public Works to execute Right -of -Way
Certifications on behalf of the City of Santa Clarita for State/Federal Highway
Projects. It should be emphasized that the action by the Director of Public
Works will be one of administrative formality, after Council has been appraised
of, and has approved right-of-way acquisition.

execute Right -of -Way Certification on behalf of.the City.
