Resolution 01-028, re: Lighting_agreement for 29`h Avenue NE with Northern States <br /> 7 Power Company (WSB, Inc.). <br /> 8 Todd Hubmer, WSB, explained the contract with Xcel Energy is for the installation and <br /> 9 maintenance of decorative lighting on 291h Avenue. The total cost for installation of the <br /> 10 decorative lighting is $155,100, and the monthly energy and maintenance fees are $6.45 plus <br /> 11 $1.35 surcharge per fixture.
