Speaker 5: Agenda Item 20 Council Bill 118579 relating to Seattle Public Utilities declaring certain real property rights relating to drainage and wastewater facility easements within the City of Seattle as being surplus to city utility needs. Authorizing the director of Seattle Public Utilities to relinquish such easement rights and accepting new easements for city owned drainage and wastewater facilities. Plate Placing the real property rights and interest conveyed by the easements under the jurisdiction of Seattle Public Utilities and ratifying and confirming certain prior acts. The committee recommends the bill pass.
Speaker 0: Thank you, Councilmember Banks.
Speaker 4: Thank you. This legislation authorizes the partial or full relinquishment of 26 utility easements and the acceptance of 18 utility easements. These are very small. Some cases they're just a half a block. The easements establish Seattle Public Utilities rights to operate city facilities on private property, and the easements were acquired or shifted at no cost to the city . We did a batch of them, which will save time for Seattle Public Utilities as well as this council. You don't have to go through all 40 of them. So we recommend approval of this easement as bundled.
Speaker 0: Thank you. Questions or comments? Please call the role on the passage of the bill.
Speaker 1: Back shot by Gordon Gonzalez, Harrell, Licata by Rasmussen High and President Burgess seven in favor and unopposed.
Speaker 0: The bill passes and the chair will sign it. Please read item 21.
