Underground Utility Waiver
51 Alice Avenue
Dear Mr. Rosingana:
Please be advised thru the Community Development Director, with the concurrence of the
Land Development Manager, on behalf of the City Engineer, has reviewed your request to
permit overhead services in conjunction with the utility upgrade and proposed addition to your
existing residence on the above-referenced property in lieu of the requirement to underground
the utilities.
Pursuant to Campbell Municipal Code section 20.36.150, this request has been granted as a
waiver of the requirement to underground utilities due to the limited likelihood that other
utility lines will be placed underground in your neighborhood and the excessive cost of having
to underground the utility lines.
If you should have any questions regarding this determination, please do not hesitate to
contact me at 866-2193.
Sincerely,
Darcy Smith

Dear,
I plan an addition to the side and back of 51 Alice Ave. A new 200 amp service will be installed on the
new addition. The existing overhead power to the building is from the rear alley of the property. From the
proposed new location of the service to the alley is 63 t~, from the property line to the nearest power pole is
40 fi, The total footage that would needed ~to be trenched would be 103 fi. The trenching on the alley
would be over water and sewer lines. The cost of underground connection would be astronomical.
None of the houses on either side of Alice Ave have underground power.
