iB# TITLE: 1 b! y 7 1 AUTHORIZATION FOR COMPENSATION TO
SDG&E FOR PUBLIC ROAD CROSSINGS WITHIN
ATG. 12/18/01 THE CANNON ROAD WEST RIGHT-OF-WAY
PROJECT NO. 3184 IEPT. ENG
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Adopt Resolution No. &w36q authorizing compensation to San Diego Gas and Electric
(SDG&E) for public road crossings within the Cannon Road West right-of-way, Project No. 3184.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
Cannon Road West Reach 2 Segment 2 (Segment 2) which will extend Cannon Road to El Camino
Real, is proposed to start construction in December 2001. The project has two road crossing
locations within the SDG&E 150-foot electric transmission easement. Kelly Land Company (KLC)
has been conditioned to construct Segment 2. Segment 2 is funded through Bridge and
Thoroughfare District No. 3 (BTD). The BTD fund includes all costs associated with the use of the
right of way.
Compensation for the road crossings is required because SDG&E has senior rights for the
transmission easement. There are two road crossings through existing SDG&E easements.
Compensation is based on the square footage of the entire use area.
The Joint Use Agreement that will document the sharing of these rights between SDG&E and the
City will be recorded on the Kelly Ranch final map. Kelly Land Company has previously dedicated
Cannon Road to the City of Carlsbad by easement.
Staff recommends authorizing payment of compensation for the road crossings to SDG&E in the
amount of $49,556.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
The Planning Director has determined that the requested action is consistent with prior CEQA
review. The project was reviewed in the Kelly Ranch Environmental Impact Report and the
Mitigated Negative Declaration for Cannon Road West Reach 2. Significant environmental impacts
identified by those CEQA documents were determined to be mitigable to levels of less than
significant. Permits from the resource agencies have been received.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The compensation total for the road crossings within the transmission easements is $49,556.
The BTD anticipated the costs and sufficient funds are available in the project account.

Re: Cannon Road West - Road Crossing Fees
Dear Ms. Howard:
The purpose of this correspondence is to provide you with the fees associated with the
public road crossings (Cannon Road) within San Diego Gas & Electric’s (SDG&E) 150’
electric transmission easement. These fees were based on square footage calculations
provided by Project Design Consultants. The fees are as follows:
$20,718.00 Parcel A (Cannon Road S/O Hemingway Dr.)
$28,838.00 Parcel B (Cannon Road N/O Hemingway Dr.)
$49,556.00 Total Road Crossing Fee
SDG&E rate-payers purchase these electric transmission easements for fair market value.
When asked to surrender a portion of these rights to municipalities (i.e. road crossings),
SDG&E rate-payers must be reimbursed for those lost rights. The Joint Use Agreement
will document the sharing of these rights between SDG&E and the City.
Should you have any questions, please call me at (858) 654-1201.
Sincerely,
Michael J. Williams
Land Management Representative
