permanent electric power to the facility, and has requested that they be granted a 48 square foot easement
from the City. FPL shall, at its sole cost and expense, maintain the new pad mounted transformer with
the right to improve, change the voltage, and remove such facilities or an.y of them within the easement,
with full right of ingress thereto and egress therefrom. in the event this easement is disconnected. or
abandoned, the easement will cease and revert to the City.
Financial Impact; There is a financial impact of S4,993.00 in expenditures to the City's capital
fund.
