The City Clerk stated that based on the information provided by the Director of Utilities and the fact that staff is still examining our position asked the City Council that the below listed matter be deferred to the next City Council Meeting. The Director of Utilities also advised the City Council that the department is not asking to terminate the Edison -Vernon Victorville Lugo agreement and that it only wants to determine how much, if any, of the 64 MW is to be retained as part of the agreement. Communication from Bruce V. Malkenhorst, City Administrator/City Clerk, dated September 12, 2002, advising that pursuant to Amendment No. 1 to the Edison -Vernon Victorville-Lugo Transmission Service Agreement, the City has a one-time right to extend the 64 MW additional transmission service beyond December 31, 2002. Utilities' staff advises that the 64 MW of Victorville-Lugo additional transmission service be terminated due to the development of the Malburg Generating Station, which will satisfy a substantial portion of Vernon's energy requirements in the future, save substantial ongoing costs and future cost exposures associated with retaining the Victorville-Lugo additional transmission service, and reduce Edison's transmission cost by approximately $414,000.00 per year.
