Staff raises ComEd service-line issues found during building-permit reviews
Summary
Staff member Nick alerted the board to recurring issues with ComEd service-line placements identified during summer building-permit reviews and asked trustees to direct residents with questions to him for clarification.
Nick told the board he has been working with a ComEd representative to clarify service-line placement requirements because multiple building permits reviewed over the summer revealed potential placement issues. He said the matter has affected permits across several neighborhoods and asked trustees to direct residents with service-line questions to him.
Nick said the issue did not appear restricted to older homes but has shown up in permits from across town; he noted the work did not involve Cambridge Lakes North 2 homes. He did not provide a definitive resolution at the meeting but said he is seeking clarification from ComEd and would report back as he receives information.
The board did not take formal action; staff requested residents and trustees forward inquiries about service-line placement to Nick while he continues to seek clarification from the utility.
