Undergrounding. 11.2.1. Unless otherwise provided in this License, all new Licensee facilities in the Public Streets or in any public or private easement shall be located in accordance with the County's subdivision regulations, as they may be amended from time to time. Nothing contained in this Section requires Licensee to construct, operate, and maintain underground any ground-mounted appurtenances such as Subscriber taps, line extenders, system passive devices (splitters, directional couplers), amplifiers, stand-by and other power supplies, network reliability units, pedestals, or other related equipment. 11.2.2. If Licensee extends new service into an area that already has available overhead utility poles, then Licensee may use such poles for its facilities, subject to agreement with the pole owner. No underground facilities may be moved to poles. Licensee may not install any poles. Licensee's existing overhead facilities may remain on poles subject to the requirements of Section 11.2.3 below. 11.2.3. Licensee's aerial facilities shall be placed underground as set forth below. 11.2.3.1. Where aerial facilities of other utilities in the same span are placed underground at the cost of such other utility, Licensee shall concurrently (or earlier) place its existing aerial facilities underground at its own expense.

Undergrounding. Licensee will install or relocate its Network Facilities underground in those areas and portions of City where all transmission and distribution facilities of the public utilities providing electric and communications services are required by City Code to be placed underground. If, however, any third-party electricity or communications transmission or distribution facilities remain above ground, Licensee may install or keep and retain its Network Facilities above ground.

Undergrounding. Subject to the applicable City Code of each Member City, Grantee shall place underground all of its transmission lines which are located or are to be located above or within the Streets of the Member Cities in the following cases: (a) All other existing utilities are required to be placed underground by statute, resolution, policy or other Applicable Law; (b) Grantee is unable to get pole clearance; (c) Underground easements are obtained from developers of new residential areas; or (d) Utilities are overhead but residents prefer underground (service provided at the lowest legally permitted price to residents). If an ordinance is passed by Grantor or a Member City, which involves placing underground certain utilities including Grantee’s cable plant which is then located overhead, Grantee shall participate in such underground project and shall remove Facilities if requested to do so and place Facilities underground. Nothing herein shall mandate that a Member City provide reimbursement to Grantee for the costs of such relocation and removal. However, if a Member City provides any reimbursement to other right-of-way users or makes available funds for the cost of placing Facilities underground, nothing herein shall preclude the Grantee from participating in such funding to the extent consistent with the City Code or Applicable laws. If the source of funding is from a third party for a specific utility; a Member City is not obligated to provide similar funding for these purposes to other utilities including Grantee. Grantee shall use conduit or its functional equivalent to the greatest extent possible for undergrounding, except for Drops from pedestals to Subscribers’ homes and for cable on other private property where the owner requests that conduit not be used. Cable and conduit shall be utilized which meets the highest industry standards for electronic performance and resistance to interference or damage from environmental factors. Grantee shall use, in conjunction with other utility companies or providers, common trenches for underground construction wherever available.

Undergrounding. For new installations, excluding locations where all -------------- utilities are underground, if a subscriber requests an underground Drop, Company may charge the subscriber the differential between the cost of aerial and underground installation of the Drop to the subscriber.
