Re: Underground Utility Waiver
File No: PLN2005-109

Dear Ms. Matray:
Please be advised that the Community Development Director, with the concurrence of the City
Engineer, has reviewed your request to permit overhead utility services in conjunction with the
addition to your residence on the above-referenced property in lieu of the requirement to underground
the utilities.
Pursuant to Campbell Municipal Code Section 21.18.140, the request to underground utilities has
been granted due to the limited likelihood that other utility lines in the surrounding neighborhood will
be placed underground and the high cost of undergrounding the utilities as compared to overhead
installation.
If you should have any questions regarding this determination, please do not hesitate to contact the
undersigned at (408) 866-2140 or via email atstephaniew@citvofcampbell.com.
Sincerely,
Ve0~~ ())\\~
