Re: Aerial Variance Request for JT#226057
To whom it may concern,
SEFNCO Communications has been contracted to design and engineer this project on behalf of Comcast
Cablevision. Comcast is applying for a variance request in order to upgrade their existing facilities.
Comcast proposes to over-lash approximately 4000’ of aerial fiber optic cable along the right of way of
148th Ave Se, as well as the right of way of NE 4th Pl and NE 10th St, in order to meet on going service
capacity issues.
Comcast is requesting that the City of Renton approve this variance request based on the fact that the
requirements for undergrounding this proposed over-lash will not cause substantial adverse impacts to
other persons or entities in the immediate area and will cause undue hardship.
1. Installation of undergrounding facilities will increase the total cost of construction roughly
15-25 times the amount of aerial over-lash on the existing Comcast strand.
2. Potential Damage to underground facilities will be increased.
3. Over-lash will not cause substantial adverse impact to other persons or entities in the
immediate area. Over-lashing the cable will be accomplished in a few days, and the
residents will not notice and impact. Comcast will clean up the over-lashed spans as
necessary and identify and remove any existing dead cables along this route.
4. The variance is necessary to prevent and undue hardship due to the increased construction
cost if forced to install the proposed extension underground.
5. The granting of the variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare because
Comcast does agree to underground the cable system, but they are waiving the obligation
into the future when all other utilities are underground to prevent an undue hardship
against Comcast currently.
MFP17003780
Upon the granting of the Variance, Comcast will coordinate construction and traffic control as per your
requirements. Comcast and their contractors want to cooperate at the highest level and agree to adhere
to all provisions and requirements set forth by the City of Renton to insure safe installation and
maintenance of the proposed facilities.
If you have any further questions regarding this project please contact me at (253) 455-1066 or Bill
Walker at (253) 288-7538.
Thank you for your consideration in this matter.
