BACKGROUND P4URN14CTU . At the Council meeting of October 21, 1987, the City
Council awarded the contract for installation of Electric Substructures, Lower
Sacramento Road, Rutledge Drive and Turner Road to Richard A. Heaps Electrical
Contractor, Inc. in the amount of $23,894.00. The installation of the
substructures will enable the Electric Utility Department to reconstruct the
underground direct -buried 12-kv distribution system in the area. The existing
system, installed in 1968-69, is rapidly failing due to cable deterioration. As a
result of the cable condition, this area has experienced numerous outages, with
the outage rate continually increasing.
