the recommendation shown below.

warning signage on Elm Street at Loma Drive, flashing red
overhead beacon and street lighting system at Elm Street and
Mills Avenue, and flashing yellow beacon systems on Mills Avenue
and Elm Street at various locations, and other incidental and related work, all as shown on the plans and

Plans and specifications for this project were approved on April 20, 2005. The City received the following

FISCAL IMPACT: There are energy and annual maintenance costs for the electrical systems.
The flashing beacons and in -roadway lighting system have Light Emitting
Diodes (LED) which use minimal energy, costing approximately $60 per
year. The eight LED flashing beacons will need to be replaced in five to
ten years and cost less than $100 each. Since Elm Street was reconstructed approximately seven years
ago, the in -roadway lighting LED fixtures will not need to be replaced until the roadway is reconstructed
in thirteen to fifteen years. At this time, the conductors and in -roadway LED bases will need to be
replaced at a cost of approximately $10,000.
