Title
Salt River Project Facilities Relocation Agreement for Electrical Facility for City of Phoenix - 32nd Street, Southern Avenue to Broadway Road Project - ST85100245 (Ordinance S-43681)
Description
Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute a Facility Relocation Agreement with Salt River Project (SRP) for electrical facilities within City of Phoenix's 32nd Street, Southern Avenue to Broadway Road Project, ST85100245.
Report
Summary
SRP currently has electrical facilities at the intersection of 32nd Street and Roeser Road which will be undergrounded as a result of the 32nd Street improvement project. The 32nd Street project involves undergrounding some electrical facilities, installing new street lights and roadway construction.
A Facilities Relocation Agreement (FRA) will be executed to include addressing potential future relocation costs if future relocation of undergrounded electrical facilities is caused by a City project. Because the project uses SRP Aesthetics Funds to underground the electrical facilities, the FRA states that 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.
Further request the City Council to grant an exception pursuant to Phoenix City Code Section 42-20 to authorize indemnification and assumption of liability provisions that otherwise would be prohibited by Phoenix City Code Section 42-18.
Public Outreach
Citizen notification was completed as part of the design and construction process.
Location
This project is located on 32nd Street from Southern Avenue to Broadway Road.
