BACKGROUND INFORMATION: At the April 15, 2015 Council meeting, staff was directed to proceed with replacement of the existing School Street up -lights with energy efficient LED lamps. There are currently 140 Hydrel up -light fixtures installed on School Street between Lodi Avenue and Locust Street. One fixture has recently been replaced as a mock-up installation to evaluate lighting quality, the level of effort required to perform the replacement, and the relative condition of the light assembly components given their age. During this process, Staff learned the electrical fittings on the housings have become corroded over time and need replacement. Therefore, Staff recommends the City purchase the additional 139 LED light fixtures (complete assembly) to save contractor mark-up costs and to expedite the project. While the light fixtures are being manufactured, staff will begin the process for bidding their installation. The fixtures will be purchased through Consolidated Electrical Distributors, Inc., of Lodi, the local distributor for Hydrel fixtures. There is opportunity to use Public Benefits funds to replace the existing tree well up -light lamps with energy efficient LED lamps. FISCAL IMPACT: FUNDING AVAILABLE FWS/eb attachment Not applicable.
