E. GAS AND ELECTRIC The Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) supplies gas and electric service to the Plan Area. A combination of several local electric service lines (12KV) and one electric transmission line (60KV) are presently suspended from power poles throughout the Plan Area . The existing 60KV transmission line is not required by the Specific Plan to be undergrounded , unless otherwise required for construction of the elementary school. The existing 12KV line that extends along the existing Vineyard A venue frontage of Lot 18 shall be placed underground and funded as a shared Plan Area improvement. The existing 12KV line that extends along the remainder of Vineyard A venue is coupled with the 60KV line and is therefore not planned to be undergrounded. All other 12KV lines shall be undergrounded by the developers of individual projects as development takes place. All new 12KV service lines shall be placed underground. A new 12KV line will be placed in the realigned Vineyard A venue to serve future Plan Area development and funded concurrently with the shared roadway improvements. Natural gas distribution facilities will be extended from the east side of the Plan Area in order to provide service to local properties. These facilities will be placed within the existing Vineyard Avenue right-of-way and will be funded concurrently with the shared roadway improvements. Installation of on-site distribution facilities will be the responsibility of each individual developer. F. TELEPHONE AND CABLE TELEVISION Pacific Bell provides telephone service to the Plan Area, and TCI supplies cable television. Existing service is accommodated by overhead wires on poles shared with PG&E along the existing Vineyard Avenue. Both Pacific Bell and TCI plan to expand services in the Plan Area following the same or similar alignments as PG&E (within the new Vineyard Avenue alignment). System expansion costs are generally shared between the service provider and the developer. All service lines are to be placed underground. G. EMERGENCY AND PERSONAL WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS FACILITIES In the future, the need for emergency and personal wireless communication facilities may arise within the Plan Area . Emergency facilities may be constructed on an as-needed basis in any district within the Specific Plan Area in such a way as to serve public safety needs. Personal wireless facilities may be permitted in the Open Space district in accordance with the provisions of the City's Personal Wireless Service Ordinance. Joint use of the City water tank site is encouraged for such facilities , where feasible . 84
