RE T FOR CITY COUNCIL AGEND TEM <br />Agenda Date Requested: October 10, 1994 <br />Requested By: S. Gillett Department: Public Works <br />XXXX Report Resolution Ordinance <br />Exhibits: Houston Lighting & Power Easement <br />SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION <br />The Federal Aviation Administration issued a grant to the City of La Porte <br />for improvements at the La Porte Municipal Airport in June 1993. Included <br />in the grant was removal of overhead powerlines at the southeast corner of <br />the Airport, along Spencer Highway near Driftwood. Houston Lighting & <br />Power recently completed installation of underground powerlines along <br />Spencer Highway on airport property, and removal of overhead lines and <br />poles. Use of airport property was necessary due to the recent widening of <br />Spencer, leaving insufficient room in the right-of-way for the underground <br />installation. <br />Houston Lighting & Power has requested an easement for the new <br />installation, as shown on the attached easement document. The easement <br />provides for access to erect, install, operate, maintain, replace, inspect <br />and remove electric transmission facilities. Access by HL&P personnel is <br />through a recently installed gate on Airport Blvd., with the City <br />controlling access. <br />Action Required by Council: Approve, and authorize the Mayor to execute, an <br />easement to Houston Lighting & Power at the La Porte Municipal Airport. <br />Availability of Funds: <br />General Fund Water/Wastewater <br />Capital Improvement General Revenue Sharing <br />Other <br />Account Number: N/A .Funds Available: YES NO <br />Approved for City Council Agenda <br />~ i .
