Gilchrist, Accounting Recorder (via R/E) Willow Pass Road Widening Project May 21, 1991 Page 2 III. Reasons for Recommendations/Back round:ound: (Cont.) On June 6, 1989, the Board of Supervisors approved Underground Utility District No. 25 along this same stretch of Willow Pass Rd. in West Pittsburg. C When the overhead utilities are relocated underground, new street fighting has to be provided. Street lighting is a non-reimbursable cost under the Rule 20A Undergrounding Program. The cost of the lighting has been included in the widening project. Originally, the luminaires were to be installed at our cost with the widening project. This would have created a three to six month period with no street lighting. -Due to public safety, PG&E has agreed to install the luminaires at an earlier date. This board order will provide for payment for the luminaire installation and other miscellaneous connection charges. IV. Consequences of Negative Action: If the agreement is not executed and payment made, street lighting will not be provided along Willow Pass Road in West Pittsburg. {
