and maintenance of their facilities within the right-of-way and City-owned park property

generally described as a deep anode well and a trench for an electrical line, depicted in
Attachment 2.
The existing deep anode well is located within Scarlett Drive right -of-way. The
proposed trench and Kinder Morgan’s access is located within Don Biddle Community
Park within a future parking lot adjacent to Horizon Parkway and within a concrete

for Kinder Morgan to maintain these facilities, which will be located outside of Kinder
