4.6 Private Utilities Staff has not yet met with the telephone, gas, and cable utilities regarding this project. If the City Council approves the preparation of Plans and Specifications, staff will meet with the private utility companies to discuss the proposed improvements as noted in the project schedule within this Report. The alignment of streets, sidewalks and pathways will be considered to minimize impacts to private utilities. No impacts to power poles are anticipated with this project. Should any of the utility companies indicate that they wish to upgrade, replace and/or otherwise modify their services during this project, any such upgrades, replacements and/or modifications will be at the sole discretion and cost of the private utility. City staff will contact Xcel Energy to see if they would like to bury any of their overhead lines with this project. 4.7 Permits Permits that are anticipated to be required as part of the proposed improvements include: • MPCA General Stormwater Permit (NPDES) Grading and Storm Water • LRRWMO Permit WMO Stormwater Permit • Met Council Sanitary Sewer Extension Permit 4.8 Right-of-Ways/Easements It is anticipated that all improvements will occur within existing City right-of-ways and/or easements, with the exception of tying into private driveways. However, it is not anticipated that the City will need to acquire any additional right-of-way or easements for this project. Therefore, potential costs for any right-of-way or easements are not included in the probable project costs.
