BACKGROUND:

Due to the narrow road width of Ramona Way at the work site, Pacific Gas & Electric Company (PG&E) has requested the road closure to replace the existing utility pole. There is insufficient road width to setup and operate boom trucks and safely maintain through traffic. This request was previously approved by the Board of Supervisors in resolution RES 2024-350 but the work was delayed and PG&E requested a new closure date.  Applicant shall follow guidelines set forth by the Public Works Department.

 

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Applicant will be unable to close the road to complete planned utility pole replacement.
