This ordinance was patterned after a model ordinance prepared by the League of <br />Minnesota Cities. At that meeting, representatives for Cormexus Energy requested an <br />opportunity to meet with City staffto review a number of concerns with the ordinance. <br /> <br />Following review of a number of changes suggested by Connexus, and review by the City <br />Engineer, the City Attorney, and ultimately, the Public Works Committee, the amended <br />ordinance was reintroduced on March 21, 2000. When the ordinance was considered for <br />adoption at the April 11 Council meeting, a representative of Reliant Energy appeared requesting <br />adoption be delayed for two weeks to allow for their in-house expert to review the proposed <br />ordinance. The Council agreed to table the issue until April 25 and requested that the ordinance <br />be sent to other potentially affected utility companies. Staff has sent copies of the ordinance to <br />Media One, U.S. West, and NSP. <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br /> <br />Staff recommends adoption of the right-of-way oidinance. <br /> <br />Council Action: <br /> <br />Motion to adopt Ordinance 00-XX establishing regulations governing activity within the right- <br />of-ways within the City of Ramsey. <br /> <br />Reviewed by: <br /> <br />City Engineer <br />City Administrator <br />Director of Public Works <br />City Attorney <br /> <br />CC: 04/25/00 <br /> <br />327 <br /> <br /> <br />
