Description
Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to enter into a Facility Relocation Agreement with Salt River Project for electrical facilities along 44th Street north of Camelback Road.

Report
Summary
Salt River Project (SRP) currently has overhead electrical facilities on 44th Street north of Camelback Road, which will be relocated underground in accordance with an approved SRP Municipal Aesthetics Program project, which is being used to convert the overhead electrical facilities to underground.
A Facility Relocation Agreement (FRA) will be executed to include addressing potential future relocation costs if future relocation of underground electrical facilities is caused by a City project. Because the project uses SRP Municipal Aesthetics Program funds to underground the existing electrical facilities, the FRA states the City will pay 100 percent of any potential future relocation costs. The FRA will contain additional terms and conditions deemed necessary and appropriate to facilitate future electrical relocations.
Financial Impact
There is no financial impact to the City of Phoenix.
