Title
Declaring it necessary to improve certain streets and public ways in the Downtown Area of the City by providing street lighting; providing for the assessment of costs of that lighting; and declaring an emergency.
Body
SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:
Certain streets and public ways in the Downtown Area of this City are provided with various types of street lighting, which assists in preventing crime and hazards to pedestrian and vehicular traffic. The street lighting provided in the Downtown Area of this City, using light emitting diode, high pressure sodium vapor, mercury vapor, fluorescent and incandescent street lights, is different from that provided in the lighting of other areas of the City, and this Council has determined accordingly to provide separately for that street lighting in the Downtown Area and the assessment of a portion of the costs of providing it. The total estimated cost of street lighting for the Downtown Area for the year 2023 was $161,991 (including an estimated property owners' portion of $131,740 to be specially assessed and an estimated City portion of $30,251). The total estimated cost of the street lighting for the Downtown Area for the year 2024 is $151,236 (including an estimated property owners' portion of $105,837 to be specially assessed and an estimated City portion of $45,399).
