The following items below are issues that David brought up regarding the CSU Fresno Project. They are centered around the CEQA document that was provided to them. ? David can not make recommendations and/or comments to the City's Team with the scope of the 115kV line from the PG&E Herndon/Bullard Sub. to the CSU Fresno Sub. not being fully defined. i.e. overhead or under ground, PG&E or CSU Fresno owning the line. ? David has numerous issues either way should PG&E owns the line or CSU Fresno. ? David is investigating whether or not there is a public utility easement located at Bullard. He indicated that the likelihood is high that there is. ? If PG&E installs and owns the line then there are set of rules that the City has in place for this work to be conducted by a public utility governed by the CPUC. The easement issues are broad under this scenario. ? David indicated that should PG&E install and own the 115kV line, that an encroachment permit will not suffice. He indicated that a Conditional Use Permit would need to be utilized. ? David stated that should CSU Fresno want to install and own the 115kV line that this is an area that is "convoluted and complex". There would be a tremendous amount of legal issues around this. i.e. can the City grant this easement to the University? With the line being dedicated to the University what does that mean? Does CSUF have a legal right to this easement? ? It sounds like the City has never dealt with this type of issue and does not have set of rules and/or regulations dealing with this. ? David stated that he might be in the next meeting with the University, EES, and Fresno. I will advise everyone should there be any other developments in this area prior to the upcoming meeting with the City. Let me know if you have any comments or questions.
