Title
Authorizing the grant of a permanent limited easement to American Transmission Company for an overhead electric transmission line within a portion of the City’s Stormwater Utility Parcel 533, located at 409 Commerce Drive.

American Transmission Company (“ATC”) is has an existing 69 kilovolt overhead electric transmission line located within the right-of-way of Mineral Point Road, near the intersection of Junction Road.

A general location map depicting the Easement is attached and marked as Exhibit A.
