DISCUSSION In 2019, the City acquired a parcel of land located at 402 East Warner Avenue in conjunction with the Warner Avenue Improvements Project from Main Street to Oak Street. Along the east side of the parcel exists a 17-foot wide Maple Street Bike Trail and Southern California Edison (SCE) power pole and overhead power lines serving the residential lots fronting Maple Street and a traffic signal nearby (Exhibit 1). As part of the Warner Avenue project, SCE will need to modify the power pole adjacent to 402 East Warner to underground overhead facilities along Warner Avenue, and provide service for proposed traffic signal at the Warner and Maple intersection. Therefore, a non-exclusive easement is needed for SCE to construct, use, maintain, operate, alter, add to, repair, replace, reconstruct, and inspect the underground electrical supply system in order to continue distributing electrical energy to the residents. FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. EXHIBIT(S) 1.
