Summary

City staff told the council that Langley Air Force Base requested permission to run electrical services across several city-owned parcels and that the city followed the public-bid process required by the Virginia Code.
The ordinance would accept the bid submitted by Virginia Electric and Power Company (doing business as Dominion Energy Virginia) and grant a nonexclusive easement over specific city parcels to allow transmission and distribution of electric power to serve Langley.

The mayor opened a public hearing; no members of the public signed up to speak, and council moved and seconded to proceed with the ordinance.
