CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO - REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION - --- ITAFF REPORT The Southern California Edison Company has a hiqh voltaqe steel tower at the northeast corner of Kendall Drive and University Parkway. Tbis tower is about five feet from the edqe of existinq pavement, as shown on the attached map. The future curb line traverses the tower. . Kendall Drive is shown in the Capital Improvement Pro- 9ram to be widened to four lanes in the 1991/92 Fiscal Year. This is predicated upon receivinq Federal-Aid Urban Funds in the next four year fundinq cycle. This tower will have to be removed, in order to allow the wideninq to occ~r. A preliminary estimate of $100,000 haw been provided by Edison to set a new tower (or specially desiqned pole) clear of the ultimate ri9ht-of-way for Kendall Drive and remove the ex18ting tower. About 18 to 24 months will be required to desi9n and fabricate the new tower. The circai ts on this tower are obviously in excess of 33,000 ltVA. Therefore, underqroundinq of th18 line will not be Jmposed as a condition of development. ~ Action on this tower could be deferred until the parcel '-' alon9 Kendall Drive is developed, and a condition imposed that they relocate the tower to clear required street improvements alonq Kendall Drive. This would be an unusual financial burden to place on a development, and we have no assurance that the parcel will be developed in dccordance with our schedule for widening Kendall Drive. In view of the projected increase in traffic on Kendall Drive, due to the extensive developments in the area, and lonq lead time, we recollllllend that $100,000 from State College Bond proceeds be allocated to finance the estimated cost of removinq this tower. Also, that the Director of Public Works/City Engineer be directed to notify Edison to remove the tower. "-' 4-19-90 - '--" .... ~ . " \ er:1 I~I . .a..:Ji) .
