(12) foot wide strip of land lying within Los Angeles County Assessor's Parcel No. 5283-
032 -903. This parcel is owned in fee by the City of Rosemead and located within the
Alhambra Wash Los Angeles County Flood Control Channel. An existing pole line that
is owned and operated by SCE is currently at this location. This grant of easement will
allow cross arms to be installed for additional overhead electrical supply systems and
communication systems.
Staff Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Approve Resolution No. 2011 -51, determining that the value of the proposed pole
line and cross -arm easement over Assessor's Parcel No. 5283 - 032 -903 is of
nominal value and authorizing the grant of easement to the Southern California
Edison Company.
2. Authorize the City Manager to sign the attached grants of easement within and
over Los Angeles County Assessor's Parcel No. 5283 - 032 -903.
DISCUSSION
An existing pole line, owned and operated by the Southern California Edison Company,
crosses over Los Angeles County Assessor's Parcel No. 5283 - 032 -903. This parcelis
owned in fee by the City of Rosemead and is located within the Alhambra Wash just to
the east of the intersection of Klingerman Street and Angelus Avenue.
The Southern California Edison Company has requested the granting of a twelve (12)
foot wide easement to be centered on the alignment of the existing pole line which

a legal description of the proposed easement which the City Engineer has reviewed and
found appropriate for the grant of easement.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Since the proposed easement passes over land encumbered by the Los Angeles
County's Alhambra Wash flood control channel the land owned in fee by the City of
Rosemead is of nominal value. Further, there will be no impact to the City's General
Fund.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Southern California Edison Company has owned and operated a pole line at this
location for many years and the addition of cross -arms and other overhead electrical
supply systems and communication systems will have no significant environmental
impact.
