RECOMMENDED ACTION:
That the City Council approve the plans and specifications and authorize
advertisement for bids for installation of streetlights on phase two of the
Streetlight Completion Project and authorize the transfer of funds for the
project.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: One of the City's goals is to provide streetlighting in unlit portions of the City.
This project, known as the Streetlight Completion Project, is estimated to
install 1000 — 1200 lights over a period of 3 — 5 years at a cost of $ 3.5 — 4
million. This project, phase two, will install 98 lights utilizing a contractor
via the bid process and 7 lights on existing utility poles by City forces in various areas throughout the City as shown
highlighted on the attached map. This recommendation will also provide funding for the design, construction contract
management and construction by City forces. In addition this action will re-establish the funding for the total project to
date (phase 1 and 2) due to the funding augmentation of $80,400 from this source for the East Side Lighting Project,
Phase 3, as approved by the City Council on February 7, 2001.
The estimated cost of the construction contract is $400,000.
The recommended amount of transfer from the Electric System Revenue Certificates of Participation is $550,000
Bid opening has been scheduled for April 17, 2001.
