Good afternoon,

Looks like there are a few Duke-owned street lights in that parking lot. They would have a yellow tag on the front with a number on the pole if they are Duke. You will need to get with the lighting department for Duke to remove/disconnect the lights. It does look like they are connected together, so we may have to remove it entirely.

You can contact: Julia.broadbent@duke-energy.com and give her this address and explain what you are trying to do and she can put you in touch with an engineer in the lighting department.

Thank you,

Chase Michael

We have a light pole in this parking lot. That is right in the middle of one of the handicap stalls that's going in, I believe this is a duke-owned pole but I can't get any info out of the owner on whether that's true or not. We need to see if we can kill this or move it. Our electrician believes it is the last light on the circuit and that he could just kill it and put a ground box in.

Anyways, let me know if this is something you can help us with.

Thanks,

I talked to the guy who was out there yesterday. Everything is made up and hot but the guys glass out the actual meter - we still have to plug in a meter. The guys yesterday didn’t have one on their truck so it was supposed to be done today.

Let me know if it’s not done tomorrow COB  but should be done today or by lunchtime tomorrow.

Hello Chase!

I appreciate you helping me with this.  I had to terminate my old GC team due to fraud.  Unfortunately he did none of this ahead of time as he should have.

Chad, Scott, Rick and team have been fabulous about picking up the pieces and helping me get this location open as I’ve been paying rent for months already.

Again, I appreciate all of your help!

I will pay the invoice first thing tomorrow.

Best Regards,

Michelle

Chad,

I will have an invoice to you tomorrow.

4 weeks is not going to be met. Our construction lead time is roughly 6-8 weeks after invoice is paid. This allows time for us to schedule the job and call in locates. You will also need to call customer service at 866-372-4663 and issue a Remove Order for the existing 1phase meter for the building.

This should have been called in 3-4 months ahead of time. I will do what I can to expedite the construction.

Chad –

I was not under the impression that you were looking for a cost estimate from me. However, if you give me until Friday, I can let you know how much it will cost to install a new pole with a transformer bank, riser, and pedestal. Revenue credit will go towards the some of the cost of the overhead installations, but it will be full cost for the riser and pedestal.

If you need an answer today, I would ballpark ~$5,000, but as mentioned I will need a day or so to get you an accurate estimate.

Thank you,

Hello,

Any updates on this? Never saw the cost estimate come through, we are well underweigh on this project and need to try and get the ball rolling on this asap. We were trying to price whether it would be cheaper to change our equipment or change the service.

That would be a question for your electrician.

The transformer is mainly feeding lights, so I wouldn’t worry about needing to upgrade it. You may need to run more secondaries from the pedestal to accommodate 1phase instead of 3phase, but I would have to open the pedestal to see how much room there is in the pedestal.

Thank you,

Good morning,

I just met Rick on site for this job and had some comments:

Approved meter can list – will need one to support 400A and 3phase underground: meg-approved-sockets.pdf

Unfortunately, the old building was fed from the nearby transformer that was 1ph 120/240V, and this feeds the existing building. However, your plans call for 3ph 120/208V, and while I had told Rick that we can replace the 1ph transformer with a 3ph and upgrade the riser ped, we will be UNABLE to do this as the transformer feeds the signal at Bedford Cir W as well as the parking lot lights.

Duke will need to set a net new pole (~10’E of the nearby pole, in the existing line) with a riser and pedestal, with the pedestal to be at the base of the pole and the point of service. I will swing by later today or next week and stake the pole so you have a rough idea of where you need to run your conduits to.

Revenue credit will (likely) cover the overhead costs for the pole and transformer bank, and the invoice will be for the riser/pedestal installation. I would expect to have this to you in the next week or so – please provide me with some billing information.

Our construction lead time is roughly 8-10 weeks after invoice is paid, contingent on crew availability, weather, locates clearing, etc. Since there is an existing meter on site, you will need to call in a remove order to pull that meter, and then an install order for the new meter once construction is complete and new inspection has been posted.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you,

Chase Michael

Good morning,

Per the sheet index , the riser details are on E-0.1 and the panel schedule , riser diagram are on E-5.0, and ELECTRICAL SITE PLAN on E-1.0,  I was not able to locate these sheets within the attachment.

Early contact with Duke Energy is essential so that resources may be scheduled to ensure availability of service when required- it is crucial that we receive your project information as soon as it is available to prevent any possible delays in permanent service.

Once we have received all above project files, I will assign the project to an engineer for review.   The engineer will contact you to go over the project, schedule a site visit (if needed) and designate the point of service.

After the site visit, please allow 2-3 weeks for engineer to generate a cost estimate/work will not be scheduled until invoice is paid and any necessary easements/permits are obtained, once work is scheduled please allow 8-10 weeks for construction to be completed.

Phil,

I went by earlier and it looks like it is concrete underneath but we could put it on the side and it would work and be out of circle k way.

This would work.

Good morning Phil,

At the causeway location,during the remodel we are adding Digital Menu Boards and also would be adding a height bar that you can see on the plan.

The height bar would go behind the walk-in freezer for the convenience store. I will send you pictures today, but currently they have metal flashing, covering part of the area that we would need to dig for the footer.

I just wanna make sure that it’s OK with you first because it’s a requirement with Dunkin that we have the height bar.

I have this picture, but it does not show the area. Very good. I will get a better one later today.

This is where we show the height bar on the PSL that was submitted for Store planning review.

There is about 3’-0” space between the face of the cooler and the outside of the curb. The sign vendor will need to tell us if this is enough space per the requirements they need with the jurisdiction.

May need to ask the convenience store if we are able to remove some of the existing flashing to accommodate the height bar footer.

John,

Are we able to fit a height bar behind the Circle K freezer.

From the picture I have on my phone. It looks like we would be able to put a footer for it.

It appears they just have metal flashing covering the rocks, but I will go by and take a look.

That’ll work.  Just make sure it does not block the gate.

Phil,

I went by earlier and it looks like it is concrete underneath but we could put it on the side and it would work and be out of circle k way.

This would work.

I am pretty sure you can cut into that flashing, but I copied Chad on this email.

Chad- do you remember if you installed this flashing at the bottom of the cooler when you did the remodel there or did Dennis do it when he installed the cooler box?

Good morning Phil,

At the causeway location,during the remodel we are adding Digital Menu Boards and also would be adding a height bar that you can see on the plan.

The height bar would go behind the walk-in freezer for the convenience store. I will send you pictures today, but currently they have metal flashing, covering part of the area that we would need to dig for the footer.

I just wanna make sure that it’s OK with you first because it’s a requirement with Dunkin that we have the height bar.

I have this picture, but it does not show the area. Very good. I will get a better one later today.

Thomas

This is where we show the height bar on the PSL that was submitted for Store planning review.

There is about 3’-0” space between the face of the cooler and the outside of the curb. The sign vendor will need to tell us if this is enough space per the requirements they need with the jurisdiction.

May need to ask the convenience store if we are able to remove some of the existing flashing to accommodate the height bar footer.

Should you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Thank you.

John,

Are we able to fit a height bar behind the Circle K freezer.

From the picture I have on my phone. It looks like we would be able to put a footer for it.

It appears they just have metal flashing covering the rocks, but I will go by and take a look.

As far as im concerned the sign can go at anytime but prefer its gone when we start the site. Joe Russel can come get the sign at anytime and we will remove the foundation with site equipment.

Ok!  Good to know. We should have a plan to align on signage removal and equipment needing to be moved out.  So that can run right away vs when site work is happening.  Thoughts?

Awesome!  Thank you!  I believe we are close with Blackshear as well.

With that being said what is the timeline looking like for starting once we can go?

RJ this should be added to the lawsuit as well!

Looking at the email data, I found:

1. **4375 E BAY DR, Clearwater** - This is the Caribou Coffee location (Wake Up 727)
2. **1700 Gulf to Bay** - This is another location (referred to as GTBB in Michelle's emails)
3. The emails mention "Signage at 1700" - this is the Gulf to Bay location

I can see from Michelle's email:
- "Can we align on signage remove for the site on GTBB as the stucco and other items on the building need to be completely redone."
- "I do know the main sign in the ground was the incorrect color as well."
- "How much notice will you need once I'm able to get back to work on the site?"

I also see from Scott Hendry's email:
- "We are ready to go but once we get green light it may take us a week or so to get there."
- Bond premium has been paid

So I have:
1. **4375 E Bay Dr, Clearwater** - Caribou Coffee location
2. **1700 Gulf to Bay** - Another Wake Up 727 location (GTBB = Gulf to Bay Blvd)

I need to search for:
1. Palm Harbor location
2. St. Pete Beach location
3. Any punch list items

Let me search more specifically for these locations and punch list items.

Found 4375 E Bay Dr (Clearwater) and 1700 Gulf to Bay (GTBB). Searching for Palm Harbor and St. Pete Beach locations, and punch list items:

exec

grep -i "st pete beach\|saint pete beach\|st. pete beach" /tmp/ash-emails-500.yaml | head -20
