Recommendation By minute motion,that the City Council approve the Grant of Easement for Southern California Edison located at the north side of Country Club Drive adjacent to the Freedom Park school site approximately 125 feet east of Resorter Blvd. II. Executive Summary/Discussion Southern California Edison has submitted a request for an easement totaling 126 square feet (14'x9') on the north side of Country Club Drive approximately 125 feet east of Resorter Blvd. adjacent to the Freedom Park school site. This proposed easement will be in addition to the existing easement which runs along Country Club Drive and it is needed to allow access to a new capacitor bank which is scheduled to be installed. The capacitor bank, according to SCE, will provide necessary changes to the existing electrical circuit,which will better serve Freedom Park, the elementary school and the adjacent residential development. The requested easement location will not interfere with either Freedom Park or the elementary school. The Department of Public Works reviewed the request and found it acceptable. Staff recommends that the City Council approve the request and authorize the Mayor to execute the Grant of Easement. /attachments G:\PlanningVeff Winklepleck\wpdocs\sceeasement.wpd • r O Staff Report SCE Grant of Easement November 14, 2002 Prepared by: Revie d and Co r: JEFF I KLEPLECK HOMER CROY PARKS & RECREATION ACM FOR DEVEL MENT PLANNING MANAGER SERVICES Reviewed and Concur: Reviewed and Concur: 1-70_4ThutiL PHIL DRELL AR OS ORTE�A� DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY CIT MANAG R DEVELOPMENT Reviewe and Co JOSEPH S.

These changes require the installation of some new electrical equipment. To implement these changes,it is necessary for Edison to acquire rights of way from you. Specifically,Edison will need an easement to permit the installation and maintenance of electrical facilities on north side Country Club Dr. east of Resorter Blvd. in the city of Palm Desert. The enclosed assessor's parcel map shows the location of the proposed easement. Enclosed please fmd an original and one copy of a Grant of Easement. Please have the original Grant of Easement signed, have the signatures notarized and return to Steve Mannix at 17332 Irvine Blvd., suite 140 in Tustin, CA 92780. Please ensure that the notary stamp is clear and legible to aid in recording by the County Recorder's Office. If you prefer the Edison Company to arrange for a notary service please contact Steve Mannix at(714)368- 1870 ext.223.Please keep the map and the copy of the easement for your records. Once the Grant of Easement and Encroachment permits are obtained, Edison plans to install voltage regulation equipment at this site.The type of equipment required to provide best service at this time is called a capacitor bank, commonly used throughout the Edison service territory. A capacitor bank is a compact modular green painted box approximately 5'x5'x4'. A capacitor bank is a quiet device and will be placed on a pre-cast concrete structure that will be level with the existing grade. Some trenching will be required to allow buried conduit to be connected to the capacitor bank.Landscaping affected by the installation will be returned to its original condition at the completion of the work. The actual installation should take no more than two days. The enclosed photograph shows what the capacitor bank will look like installed. The Southern California Edison Company sincerely appreciates your cooperation on this issue.All planned work for this easement will be done at no cost to you, our customer.Future maintenance of equipment installed will be at the expense of Edison and will be solely Edison's responsibility. Should you have any questions regarding the Grant of Easement,please feel free to call Percy Haralson at(714)973- 5634.He can respond to your questions and concerns and can provide you with more information about the project.
