PPL seeks easement on county property for line relocation; county told impact will be minimal
Summary
A PPL representative asked the Clinton County commissioners to grant an easement on county land along Route 664 so the utility can replace an existing line and trim trees around a relocated line; the presenter said the change should not affect county operations and will be placed on the regular agenda as appropriate.
Steve Gibson, introduced during the work session, told commissioners the utility PPL plans to retire an existing overhead power line along Route 664 and install a new line closer to the road on county-owned property adjacent to a county communications tower. Gibson said PPL requests an easement that would allow it to trim trees and maintain clearance around the relocated line.
Gibson described the change as routine and said it should have minimal effect on county operations or tower safety. Commissioners did not indicate opposition during the work session; the item will be presented for formal action or placement on the regular meeting agenda as required.
No formal vote or easement document was recorded in the work session minutes.
