Official Text
That the City Solicitor draft language to amend Section 11-51 of the Code of Ordinances to require that all new building construction in the City of Somerville must provide utilities that are underground and that overhead lines will only be permitted when the construction is the result of a fire or natural disaster and the same type structure is replacing what was removed. (Language amending Ordinance 11-71(a) to include DPW approval of the exact location of each pole and conduit was originally ordered by this Order's predecessor, #201997, and was Ordained as #202408.)
