Background:

The city is planning improvements to Chandler Heights Road from Gilbert Road to Val Vista Drive (the "Project").

SRP requires a new power distribution easement (the "Easement") to replace its existing easement rights.

The Easement will be granted to SRP at no cost. Staff has reviewed and approved the Easement and legal description.

Discussion:

This ordinance was introduced and tentatively adopted by City Council on September 12, 2024.
