SUBJ: Consider Ordinance Amending Chapter 17 of the Chanhassen City Code Requiring the
Undergrounding of Electrical and Other Utility Lines - Minnesota Valley Electric Coop - File
No. PW -130
BACKGROUND
The current ordinance in place was adopted in August of 1989 (see Attachment 1). The ordinance grants a
franchise to Minnesota Valley Electric Coop for a period of 20 years from August 28, 1989 the right to transmit
and furnish electric energy for public and private use within the City. The existing franchise agreement requires in
Section 4.1 that the relocation of its electrical facilities at its own expense if the City notifies the electric company
of a vacation of right -of -way or construction of City improvement projects or grading or reconstruction of any City
utility system. However, the current ordinance /franchise agreement does not specify undergrounding of its
electrical unless the City compensates the electric company for the added expense in undergrounding the electrical
lines. In an effort to standardize the undergrounding of electrical and other utility lines within the City of
Chanhassen, staff has recommended adopting an amendment to the ordinance requiring the undergrounding of all
electrical and other utility lines except transmission lines in excess of 15,000 volts or more in conjunction with
public improvement projects.
The City has a public improvement project underway (Lake Riley Area Trunk Utility Improvement Project) which
requires the relocation of existing overhead power lines along Lyman Boulevard and Lake Riley Boulevard. The
added cost to the project to underground these lines has been estimated at $132,000. The Public Utility
Commission allows for the utility company to petition the commission to increase their rates to recoup their added
investment for undergrounding the lines.
Attached is a draft of an ordinance amending Chapter 17 of the Chanhassen City Code. This new section will
require undergrounding of most electrical and other utility lines in conjunction with certain public improvement
projects. Excluded from this amendment is high- voltage transmission lines of 15,000 volts or more. Staff is in
support of adopting this amendment. Adoption of this ordinance requires two readings. It is therefore
recommended that the City Council approve the first reading of the ordinance amending Chapter 17 of the
Chanhassen City Code requiring undergrounding of electric and other utility lines in conjunction with certain
public improvement projects.

reasonable notice of plans to vacate for a City improvement project, or
to grade, regrade, or change the line of any Public Way or to construct
or reconstruct any City Utility System. If a relocation is ordered
within five years of a prior relocation of the same Electrical
Facilities, which was made at Company expense, the City shall reimburse
Company for non - betterment expenses on a time and material basis,
provided that if a subsequent relocation is required because of the
extension of a City Utility System to a previously unserved area,
Company may be required to make the subsequent relocation at its
expense. Nothing in this Ordinance requires Company to relocate,
remove, replace or reconnect at its own expense its facilities where
such relocation, removal, replacement or reconstruction is solely for
the convenience of the City and is not reasonably necessary for the
construction or reconstruction of a Public Way or City Utility System
or other City improvement.
4.2 Relocation of Electric Facilities in Public Ground. Except
as may be provided in Section 4.3, City nay require the Company to
relocate or remove its Electric Facilities from Public Ground upon a
finding by City that the Electric Facilities have become or will become
a substantial impairment of the public use to which the Public Ground
is or will be put. The relocation or removal shall be at the Company's
expense. The provisions of 4.2 apply only to Electric Facilities
constructed in reliance on a franchise and the Company does not waive
its rights under an easement or prescriptive right.
4.3 Projfg1g wi Sta or Federal Funding. Relocation, removal,
or rearrangement of any Company facilities made necessary because of
the extension into or through City of a federally -aided highway project
shall be governed by the provisions of Minnesota Statutes Section
161.46 as supplemented or amended. It is understood that the right
herein granted to Company is a valuable right. City shall not order
Company to remove, or relocate its facilities when a Public Way is
vacated, improved or realigned because of a renewal or a redevelopment
plan which is financially subsidized in whole or in part by the Federal
Government or any agency thereof, unless the reasonable non - betterment
costs of such relocation and the loss and expense resulting therefrom
are first paid to Company, but the City need not pay those portions of
such for which reimbursement to it is not available. "Financially
subsidized" does not include the sale of tax exempt bonds.
4.4 L Nothing in the Ordinance relieves any person from
liability arising out of the failure to exercise reasonable care to
avoid damaging Electric Facilities while performing any activity.

SECTION 5 TREE TRIMMING
The Company may trim all trees and shrubs in the Public Ways and
Public Grounds of City interfering with the proper construction,
operation, repair and maintenance of any Electric Facilities installed
hereunder, provided that the Company shall save the City harmless from
any 1i a y � g e a 9 Aa d , - s- ubJedt -to - permit -or ,. ath - er
reasonable regulation by the City.

SECTION 6. INDEMNIFICATION
6.1 The Company shall indemnify, keep and hold the City free and
harmless from any and all liability on account of injury to persons or
damage to property occasioned by the construction, maintenance, repair,
inspection, the issuance of permits, or the operation of the Electric
Facilities located in the City. The City, shall not be indemnified
for losses or claims occasioned through its own negligence except for
losses or claims arising out of or alleging the City's negligence as to
the issuance of permits for, or inspection of, the Company's plans or
work. The City shall not be indemnified if the injury or damage
results from the performance in a proper manner of acts reasonably
deemed hazardous by Company, and such performance is nevertheless
ordered or directed by City after notice of Company's determination.
6.2 In the event a suit is brought against the City under
circumstances where this agreement to indemnify applies, the Company at
its sole cost and expense shall defend the City in such suit if written
notice thereof is promptly given to the Company within a period wherein
the Company is not prejudiced by lack of such notice. If the Company
is required to indemnify and defend, it will thereafter have control of
such litigation, but the Company nay not settle such litigation without
the consent of the City, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld. This section is not, as to third parties, a waiver of any
defense or immunity otherwise available to the City; and the Company,
in defending any action on behalf of the City shall be entitled to
assert in any action every defense or immunity that the City could
assert in its own behalf.
SECTION 7. VACATION OF PUBLIC WAYS
The City shall give the Company at least two weeks' prior written
notice of a proposed vacation of a Public Way. Except where required
for a City street or other improvement project, the vacation of any
Public Way, after the installation of Electric Facilities, shall not
operate to deprive Company of its rights to operate and maintain such
Electrical Facilities, until the reasonable cost of relocating the same
and the loss and expense resulting from such relocation are first paid
to Company. In no case, however, shall City be liable to the Company
for failure to specifically preserve a right -of -way, under Minnesota
Statutes, Section 160.29.
SECTION B. CHANGE IN FORM OF GOVERNMENT

Any change in the form of government of the City shall not affect
the validity of this Ordinance. Any governmental unit succeeding the '

I SECTION 9. FRANCHISE FEE
9.1 Separate Ordinance_ During the term of the franchise hereby
' granted, and in lieu of any permit or other fees being imposed on the
Company, the City may impose on the Company a franchise fee of not more
than five percent of the Company's gross revenues as hereinafter
defined. The franchise fee shall be imposed by a separate ordinance
duly adopted by the City Council, which ordinance shall not be adopted
until at least 60 days after written notice enclosing such proposed
ordinance has been served upon the Company be certified mail. The fee
' shall not become effective until at least 60 days after written notice
enclosing such adopted ordinance has been served upon the Company by
certified mail. Section 2.5 shall constitute the sole remedy for
' solving disputes between the Company and the City in regard to the
interpretation of, or enforcement of, the separate ordinance. No
action by the City to implement a separate ordinance will commence
' until this ordinance is effective. No pre existing ordinance imposing
a fee shall be effective against the Company unless it is specifically
amended after the effective date of this ordinance following the
procedures of this Section 9 for the adoption of a new separate
ordinance. A separate ordinance which does not impose a uniform
franchise fee on all revenues within the definition of gross revenues
shall not be effective against the Company.
9.2 Terms Defined_ The term "gross revenues" means all sums,
excluding any surcharge or similar addition to the Company's charges to
customers for the purpose of reimbursing the Company for the cost
' resulting from the franchise fee, received by the Company from the sale
of electricity to its retail customers within the corporate limits of
the City.
' 9.3 Collection of the Fee_ The franchise fee shall be payable
not less often than quarterly, and shall be based on the gross revenues
of the Company during complete billing months during the period
for which payment is to be made. The payment shall be due the last
business day of the month following the period for which the payment
is made. The percent fee may be changed by ordinance from time to
' time; however, each change shall meet the same notice requirements
and the percentage may not be changed more often than annually. Such
fee shall not exceed any amount which the company may legally charge
' to its customers prior to payment to the City by imposing a surcharge
equivalent to such fee in its rates for electric service. The
Company may pay the City the fee based upon the surcharge billed
subject to subsequent reductions to account for uncollectibles or
' customer refunds. The Company agrees to make its gross revenues
records available for inspection by the City at reasonable times.
9.4 Conditions on the Fee_ The separate ordinance imposing the
fee shall not be effective against the Company unless it lawfully
inposes and the CI -qua -_-acrre::ff1ten e- -or =taxz:
"the same or greater percentage on the receipts from sales of energy
within the City by any other energy supplier, provided that, as to
such a supplier, the City has the authority to require a franchise
F
fee or to impose a tax. The franchise fee or tax shall be applicable
to energy sales for any energy use related to heating, cooling or
lighting, as well as to the supply of energy needed to run machinery
and appliances on premises located within or adjacent to the City, but
shall not apply to energy sales for the purpose of providing fuel for
vehicles.
SECTION 10. SEVERABILITY
If any portion of this franchise is found to be invalid for any
reason whatsoever, the validity of the remainder shall not be
affected.
SECTION 11. AMENDMENT
This ordinance may be amended at any time by the City passing a
subsequent ordinance declaring the provisions of the amendment, which
amendatory ordinance shall become effective upon the filing of the
Company's written consent thereto with the City Clerk within 90 days
after the effective date of the amendatory ordinance.
SECTION 12. PREVIOUS FRANCHISES SUPERSEDED
This franchise supersedes any previous electric franchise
granted to the Company or its predecessor.
