DATE:MARCH 13, 2006
SUBJECT:CASE NO. IPC-93-10; DISMISSAL OF CASE BETWEEN IDAHO POWER
COMP ANY AND NEW VILLAGER CONDOMINIUM ASSOCIATION
This case was initiated in May 1993 between Idaho Power Company and two condominium
associations located in Sun Valley, Idaho. The dispute involved Idaho Power s obligation regarding the
removal of underground transformers used to provide service to the New Villager Condominium
Association property owners. On December 19, 2003 , the parties filed a Settlement Stipulation and
requested the Commission approve the settlement. The Commission issued Order No. 29405 on
December 31 , 2003 approving the settlement and vacating the procedural schedule. The settlement
anticipated that work would be performed by Idaho Power in the future, and so the Commission s Order
stated that "when the construction work contemplated by the Settlement Stipulation is completed, the
parties can notify the Commission, and this case will be dismissed.
On March 13, 2006, Idaho Power and the Condominium Association filed a Notification of
Completion of Settlement and Motion to Dismiss. The parties advised the Commission that all provisions
of the previously approved Settlement Stipulation have been completed, and this case can be dismissed.
Staff recommends the Commission dismiss the case and close the file.
COMMISSION DECISION
Should the Commission issue an Order dismissing Case No. IPC-93-10 and closing the
file?
