Policy Decision: <br /> • <br /> Division: Streets <br /> *Issue: Street Light Utility <br /> Approximately $61 ,873 is expended for street light electricity, installation and repairs <br /> annually. The cost is currently paid out of the Street Light Utility at a cost billed to <br /> all property owners. <br /> If the Utility is sunsetted on December 31 , 1997 as planned, the cost would be <br /> absorbed back into the General Fund expenditures and reflected in the general <br /> levy. <br /> If the Utility is continued, the costs would remain outside the general levy and <br /> the City could provide for installation of new streetlights upon resident petition. <br /> Policy Decision: <br /> Division: Storm Water Management Fund <br /> *Issue: Street Sweeping Activities <br /> In 1993, the cost of street sweeping was removed from General Fund expenditures <br /> and placed in the Storm Water Management Fund. If the same action is taken in <br /> 1994, the General Fund expenditures will be reduced by $47,031 . The reduction is <br /> then reflected in a decrease in the overall levy and subsequent property taxes. <br /> Sufficient revenue must be available with the Storm Water Management Fund to <br /> pay the street sweeping costs. <br />
