20 <br /> STREET LIGHT' UT <br /> A. PUBLIC SERVICE PROGRAM <br /> Street Light Utility Program Function and Service Standards <br /> The Mounds View City Council has determined that it is in the best interest of the City to operate, <br /> maintain and improve upon the street lighting system throughout the City. This, in turn, promotes the <br /> general health, safety and welfare to those using city streets and walkways. The street light utility has <br /> been in effect since 1991 and was implemented as a means of supporting operations from a funding <br /> source other than the General Fund. This is consistent with the user fee philosophy supported by the <br /> Council. <br /> In accordance with the streetlight utility installation plan(adopted by the City Council in 1993 as <br /> proposed by the Police Department's needs assessment)ten new streetlights will be added each year <br /> until completion. Residents may petition for any additional lights. <br /> • <br /> BUDGET IMPACT <br /> Personnel: <br /> Personnel in this program consist of the following: <br /> • Assistant to the City Administrator/Deputy Clerk <br /> General Expenditures: <br /> General expenditures will increase slightly in 1997 due to the reorganization of the Administration <br /> Department. <br /> B. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN <br /> Capital equipment projections are included in the Capital Equipment Plan. <br /> C. CAPITAL BUDGET <br /> Funding for all capital equipment will be through the Street Light Utility Fund. <br /> Capital expenditures scheduled for this program will consist of adding ten new street lights each year <br /> for three years in accordance with the proactive street light installation program. Additional lights may <br /> be installed as requested by residents through the petitioning process. <br />
