BACKGROUND On June 19, 2001, the Planning Commission approved Tentative Tract Map No. 53419 on Sierra Highway north of Golden Valley Road. The Conditions of Approval for this tract require the developer to widen Sierra Highway, causing the relocation of Southern California Edison (Edison) transmission lines. This portion of Sierra Highway is a State highway, but due to potential future relinquishment of the highway, the additional right-of-way necessary for the road widening has been dedicated to the City. Edison's prior rights for the existing transmission lines were established by a joint use agreement with the State when the highway was constructed. In order to maintain their prior rights, Edison requires a new joint use agreement to be signed by the City prior to relocating the transmission lines into the City's right-of-way. The cost of the utility relocation is being paid for by the developer. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS Other action as determined by the City Council. FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact by this action. ATTACHMENTS Joint Use Agreement APPROVED
