Mr. Lum said staffis investigating options with PG&E. One is to place the line in existing terrain. The location of the road is already designed. PG&E believes that could be a problem because of the amount of fill necessary on the existing roadway. Staffis also looking at areas outside the road where the contours might be more acceptable. A suggestion has been made to PG&E to advance funds to perform some of the grading for the realigned roadway with reimbursement fi.om some of the developers in the future. He believed PG&E favored the new alignment as well, because it is less costly to them than to place the new line in the existing Vineyard Avenue. Ms. Michelotti asked if PG&E was looking for its own easement outside the Vineyard Avenue alignment. Mr. Lum responded that was one of the options. PG&E prefers to have its own easements that it can control rather than being in a public street. For example, in the area in from of Ruby Hill, PG&E will use an easement dedicated by the Ruby Hill developer, which is south of the roadway. As the line goes west into Bemal and Vineyard widens, PG&E has agreed to work with staffto place the line in the middle of the roadway so as to be farther from the residences. Ms. Michelotti asked if PG&E would have to obtain easements from property owners in the Specific Plan area along portions of the new Vineyard Avenue? Mr. Lum said that was correct. Ms. Ayala thanked Mr. Lum for all his hard work on this issue. Mr. Pico also thanked the residents in Kottinger Ranch who were involved in this.
