The Easement Deed also gives PG&E the right of ingress and egress across the Fire Station site in order to perform the above described activities, including the right to trim or remove any trees and brush within the easement area. The developer of the Avesta Senior Care Facility project is paying all costs associated with the installation of the new electric facilities on the Fire Station site, including the preparation of the associated Easement Deed document.
