Del Mar to resume utility undergrounding project Del Mar City Hall March 17, 2021 8:03 AM PT Utility undergrounding will proceed in Del Mar after the long-awaited project was sidelined last year because of COVID-related budget cutbacks and staff reductions. During their March 15 meeting, council members voted 4-1 to initiate and prioritize a Tewa Court/10th Street section of the utility undergrounding project, in addition to moving forward with two sections that had been selected before the pandemic, known as areas 1A and X1A. In the coming months, the City Council will vote on resolutions to formally launch work on each of those three undergrounding sections.
