West Arm West: Xcel is just about done burying the lines. All property owners signed the required
easements,except 2 property owners,one with multiple properties. These properties will remain with
overhead power lines. Council Member Hoffman questioned why we can't force them to under-
ground when it is a City requirement to do so and raised concerns about setting a precedent and
having the same issues on Sunset Drive. City Administrator mentioned staff and the engineer have
reached out to the homeowner's multiple times to get these easements signed.
Black Lake Road:
Xcel scheduled to start undergrounding around the 1st of August and the water/sewer contractor
could start around the end of this month. Council Member Chase stated we need to address temp
