In April 1992, the Master Plan was amended by the City Council to make it more of a <br /> planning tool through an annual review of the project areas included in the Master Plan. Project <br /> criteria are clearly defined in the Master Plan to determine which areas may be considered as <br /> potential Underground Utility Conversion Districts. <br /> Staff recommends approval of the resolution establishing the 2010-2011 Five -Year Project List <br /> for Underground Utility District Conversion Projects. <br /> BACKGROUND <br /> Analysis <br /> Under the amended Master Plan, conversion projects are evaluated for the Five -Year Project List <br /> using the following criteria: <br /> • Anticipated street widening projects <br /> • Anticipated significant street improvements other than street widening <br /> • Potential for major new development <br /> • Anticipated significant utility company work <br />
