Some of the associated work, such as replacement of street lighting currently on wood utility poles, is not covered under Rule 20A funds and will be paid from the Dougherty Road Improvements, I-580 to Houston Place, Capital Improvement Project. The City has a balance of $115,000 in its P.U.C. Rule 20A (PG&E) account as of FY 2003-2004 and will accrue additional allocations at a rate of about $125,000 per year. PG&E allows cities to "borrow out" funds three years in advance; based on this assumption, the funding available at the beginning of Fiscal Year 2005-2006, including the "borrowed" funds, would be $865,000. The other utility companies are required to underground their own facilities and bear the cost. The estimated cost of undergrounding the PG&E overhead facilities is $561,000. ------------------------- COPIES TO: Sterling Pflaum, PG&E Annie Loggins, PG&E Millie Tabayoyan, SBC Lee Gouveia, ComCast Property Owner Mailing List ITEM NO. 6v#w g: ImiscprojWougherty rd imp 580-houstonlphl ug district II O(' Proposed new development in this area may possibly pay for some of the underground work, This is dependent on the timing of the development in relation to the timing of the Underground District. DESCRIPTION: At the meeting of December 16, 2003, the City Council adopted a Resolution of Intention to form Underground Utility District 2003-01 (Dougherty Road from Sierra Lane to Dublin Boulevard, and Dublin Boulevard from Dublin Court to Dougherty Road), setting public hearing dates of January 6th and 20th for consideration of an Ordinance establishing the District. This project is intended to coincide with the Dougherty Road Improvements, 1-580 to Houston Place project. The'project is scheduled for construction in Fiscal Year 2005-2006, and it is proposed that the undergrounding of utilities will take place in conjunction with or prior to construction of the project. As the result of a preliminary walk-through of the project site with representatives of the utilities, it was determined that none of the existing businesses within the project limits have overhead services from the utility poles to be undergrounded. The following properties would be included in the proposed District: ASSESSOR'S PARCEL NUMBER STREET ADDRESS PROPERTY OWNER OF RECORD 941-0205-009-008 6617 Dublin Boulevard Corbett 2000 Trust 941-0205-010-03 6401 Dublin Boulevard Angelo Gaspare 941-0205-036 6500 Dublin Boulevard James E. & Elinor J.
