Purpose of request: The applicant states there will be a future lot combination of lots 155-14-001A and lot 155-14-036A which is located north of APN 155-14-001A. 3 City Staff Comments PDD Planning Department – Dru Maynus Please ensure that utilities are removed prior to combining the two lots together.

This easement appears to contain CenturyLink equipment. Lumen has active facilities located within the 8’ PUE project limits – aerial cable and joint utility poles. Lumen would abandon the PUE if the owner dedicates a new easement to protect Lumen’s existing facilities in place or pays to have them relocated. It is the intent and understanding of CenturyLink that this vacation shall not reduce our rights to any other existing easement or rights we have on this site or in the area. This vacation response is submitted WITH THE STIPULATION that if CenturyLink facilities are found and/or damaged within the vacated area as described, the Applicant will bear the cost of relocation and repair of said facilities. Cox Communications Based upon the supplied drawings/exhibits that you’ve submitted it has been determined that COX has no facilities within the easement and therefore we approve your request to abandon. SRP Salt River Project has no objection to the abandonment ABND 230032 at 2233 W Bethany Home Road. This is an Arizona Public Service serving area.
