CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO - REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION
Staff Report
SUBJECT:
Authorization to Proceed and Resolution Setting Public Hearing --- Underground Utility District
No. 31 --- generally located along portions of 13th Street, between Arrowhead Avenue and Sierra
Way.
BACKGROUND:
In March of 2004, the Underground Utility Committee recommended the approval of an
underground utility district generally located along portions of 13th Street, between Arrowhead
Avenue and Sierra Way, as shown on the attached plat. The recommendation was based on a
request from the Economic Development Agency, in conjunction with a proposed neighborhood
improvement project adjacent to Lincoln Elementary School and the surrounding area.
San Bernardino City Municipal Code 13.36 provides for the formation of Underground Utility
Districts, for the removal of overhead utilities, such as'power, telephone and cable TV. The
funding for the electrical portion of the undergrounding of these utilities is typically funded by
Rule 20A Funds. These funds, which are mandated by the PUC (Public Utilities Commission),
are set aside by the various power companies for the purpose of undergrounding, and are then
allocated annually for use by various cities and counties within a power company's service area.
Other utilities, such as telephone and cable TV, are not governed by the PUC and therefore have
to provide their own funding. Any conversions required on private property within a district are
paid for by either Rule 20A funds or the various utility companies, and there is no cost to the
property owners and no City funds are used for Rule 20A projects.
Approximately $700,000 a year is allocated for use by the City by Southern California Edison.
The City's recent and pending projects have depleted allocations that were available, but Edison
allows cities to 'mortgage' future projects for up to five years of estimated allocations. This
project will be funded by Edison from future allocations. The estimated cost from Rule 20A
allocations for this project is $ 500,000.
If authorization is given to proceed, approval of the attached resolution will set a public hearing
for July 19, 2004. All affected utilities will be given mailed notice of the hearing. Although
property owners will not bear any costs, affected owners will also be given mailed notice of the
proposed district.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
No City funds will be used for this project. The City's future allocation of Rule 20A funds will
be diminished by approximately $500,000.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that authorization to proceed with Underground Utility District No. 31 be
given, and that the attached resolution setting a public hearing be adopted.
