§ 9126.8. Other Site Development Standards - Utilities.

Carson Zoning Code · 2026-06 edition · updated 2026-07-25 · Carson

In D (Design Overlay) designated areas, all new utility lines, other than major transmission lines, shall be placed underground. This requirement may be waived by the Commission where topography, soil, undue financial hardship or other conditions make such underground installation unreasonable or impractical. Undergrounding shall be in accordance with the applicable rules and regulations of the utility, as currently on file with the California Public Utilities Commission.

All aboveground equipment (other than pole lines when permitted), such as transformers and pedestal terminals, which are visible from an adjacent public street or walkway, shall be within a solid enclosure or otherwise screened from public view. Such enclosure/screening shall be in accordance with the utility's service requirement. (Int. 3-79; Ord. 11-1479, § 7)
