| | | | | | | | OBJECTIVE
To recommend that the City Council approve a Letter Agreement with the Garden Grove Unified School District (GGUSD) that will allow the installation and posting of special event banners on Southern California Edison (SCE)-owned and City-owned poles located within the public right-of-way. |
| | | | | | | | BACKGROUND
The GGUSD contacted City staff with the request to install and post banners to SCE-owned and City-owned poles throughout Garden Grove. SCE has granted the City a license to install and post special event banners on SCE-owned poles located within the city’s public right-of-way. The City owns and maintains hardware for banner displays on various poles owned by the City and SCE in the Civic Center area. In addition to using these poles, GGUSD has requested permission to install hardware on an additional 200 SCE poles listed in Attachment “A”. GGUSD agrees to cover the full cost to install and maintain these additional 200 SCE poles. |
| | | | | | | | DISCUSSION
Attached is a five-year Letter Agreement with GGUSD, allowing the District to install and post special event banners to poles owned by the City and SCE located in the City's public right-of-way from July 10, 2018 through June 30, 2023. The banners posted by GGUSD will not conflict with the City's current banner posting program. Significant aspects of this Letter Agreement include the following provisions:
- GGUSD must comply with several conditions in order to install and display banners on City and SCE poles. (Section 1);
- GGUSD will install and maintain at its sole cost the additional hardware for the 200 SCE poles. (Section 1.i.); and
- GGUSD and its contractors must comply with insurance requirements, including designation of the City of Garden Grove and SCE as an additional insured on the insurance policies. (Section 6)
