Item No. 5 <br />Staff Report No. <br />Meeting Date: April 3, 2000 <br />Type of Business: Work Session <br />WK: Work Session; PH: Public Hearing; <br />CA: Consent Agenda; CB: Council Business City of Mounds View Staff Report <br />To: Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />From: Michael Ulrich, Director of Public Works <br />Item Title/Subject: Street Lighting on Edgewood Drive <br />Date of Report: March 28, 2000 <br /> <br /> <br />As directed by Council at an earlier meeting, Staff met with John Olson, Outdoor Lighting <br />Consultant with NSP on March 17 regarding the illumination of Edgewood Drive. Mr. Olson <br />presented the many options that the City of Mounds View can take advantage of, regarding street <br />lighting. Each fixture has its own illumination qualities and Council must decide what kind of <br />effects would benefit that area. Also, the City may order virtually any color of pole; the stock <br />colors are green, bronze and black. <br />(FYI: If the City chooses a non-stock color, additional ordering time would be required.) <br /> <br />The street lights will fall under the Group 5 purchase option which would entail NSP providing <br />the installation, maintenance and operation for 25 years, for $5.45 a month per light. The City <br />must pay for the installation cost(s) before the job begins. <br /> <br />NSP will provide a “photometric” of the area. The photometric will provide an actual site plan as <br />to where the street lights will be installed and how many would be required. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />________________________________________ <br />Michael Ulrich <br /> <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br />Staff seeks Council direction in this matter. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />C:\Mike's documents\staff reports\Edgewood Lighting.doc
