Xcel Energy is proposing to replace existing electrical poles along a power line, which requires a conditional use permit and site and building plan review. Some of the poles will exceed the maximum height allowed by city code (80 feet), which requires a variance. In addition, some of the existing poles are located within wetlands and floodplains. The replacement of these poles will require floodplain and wetland alteration permits.
