M.M. DATE: June 1, 2021 TO: Kent City Council SUBJECT: Summit Landsburg Road Puget Sound Energy Electrical Agreement - Authorize MOTION: Move to authorize the Mayor to sign an Electrical Relocation Agreement for $157,669.86 with Puget Sound Energy for the Rock Creek Culvert Replacement at Summit Landsburg Road, subject to final terms and conditions acceptable to the City Attorney and Public Works Director. SUMMARY: In 2010, the City entered into an agreement with the National Marine Fisheries Service and the United States Fish and Wildlife Service to implement a series of habitat conservation measures (HCM’s) in the Rock Creek Watershed in exchange for agency support on future renewals of the City’s water-right at Clark Springs. One of these HCM’s is the replacement of the Rock Creek Culvert at Summit Landsburg Road. This project is intended to remove a barrier to fish passage. The replacement project includes removal of the existing culvert, construction of a fish passable bridge and related habitat improvements. This work will require relocation of electrical facilities owned and operated by Puget Sound Energy within the right-of-way of Summit Landsburg Road. PSE intends to relocate their facilities by boring them under Rock Creek. Portions of this work will occur in unincorporated King County, outside of the City’s franchise authority. This agreement allows for PSE to be reimbursed by the City for portions of their work occurring in unincorporated King County. The engineer’s opinion of probable cost for this work is $157,669.86. BUDGET IMPACT: This relocation work will be paid for out of the City’s Water Fund using previously allocated funds. SUPPORTS STRATEGIC PLAN GOAL: Evolving Infrastructure - Connecting people and places through strategic investments in physical and technological infrastructure.
