Underground Utility - 1999To: Michele Quinney

Re: Underground Utility Request
Please fred attached a request for an underground utility waiver for 1434 Capri Drive. The property
owners are constructing an addition to their home and require new service. Due to the length of time
required before utilities could be underground and the delay to construction, the owners are requesting the
waiver. We feel a more appropriate solution would be for the owners to obtain a temporary service to the
addition, and then underground the service when P G & E scheduling is available. Please review and
comment on the attached plans by February 17, 1999.

RE: Underground Utility Waiver
In reference to the following property:
Site Address: 1434 Capri Drive
APN: 406-22-037
Building Permit Number: 9800000406
To Whom It May Concern:
We are currently in progress of building an addition to our home. During an electrical
inspection, it was recommended to re-locate and upgrade our main electrical panel. To do
this, we would have to move the existing overhead electrical wire to another part of the
house. In speaking with PG&E, we have discovered that if we add a new electrical
connection, the city of Campbell requires us to change the electrical from overhead to
underground. PG&E then informed us that they currently have a 25 week wait to have
PG&E pull in a new connection line. However, it is only 3 - 4 days to have the existing
connection relocated (cut and swing).
Since a 25 week wait would severely place our project behind schedule, we would prefer
to have our connection moved and not placed underground. The relocation site would be
in a more desirable location on our property. It currently crosses our entire lot from fight
to let~. The relocation site would be almost in front of the utility pole. Therefore, we
believe that moving the electrical wire will be a large improvement to our house and
neighborhood.
Please consider this request to waive the underground utility requirement. We would be
happy to cooperation with the city if any future underground utility project is done.
Please see the attached site plan, photos and current permit for our property for your
reference. If you have any questions, please feel free to call Bill Baily at 408-374-8550
am and 408-378-9526 pm.
Sincerely,
William E. Baily II 2/5/99
