AGENDA ITEM WORDING: Discussion of a request from Keys Energy Services to waive or
have the County pay permit fees for those county residents who will be required to relocate their
electrical service due to the elimination of certain easements.
ITEM BACKGROUND: Keys Energy Services (KES) is being required to eliminate certain
easements in order to improve accessibility and harden the overall electrical grid. In Monroe
County, KES will be installing 114 new poles along the streets and removing the same from the
rear. The relocation of poles will last about a year. The transfers will occur over two to three years
(including customer transfers and work by AT &T and Comcast). Those 114 poles will impact 120
meters, which will need to be relocated. Each meter will require the homeowner to seek an
electrician to complete the work, which will require County permits. The permits are estimated at
about $200 per location, so the total value of the permits are an estimated $24,000. The Utility
Board has approved offering homeowners a rebate of actual costs up to $2,100 and has budgeted
$250,000 over the next four years.
