INTRODUCTION: <br /> <br />An estimate has been received for Council consideration to provide and install holiday <br />lighting at City Hall, new building, and park. <br /> <br />2. ESTIMATE: <br /> <br />An estimate was received from Russel Williams for commercial holiday lighting totaling <br />$10,500. It includes materials, installation, and removal for the following areas: <br /> <br />City Hall roof line (excluding the north side) <br />Bridge railing, large pine and small pine facing HWY 61 <br />22 tree trunks facing HWY 61 <br />New building roof lines (all levels/sides) <br />Holiday tree at the park <br />2 trees at the park or front of City Hall <br /> <br />3. CURRENT COST COMPARISON: <br /> <br />Hugo Public Works has lit portions of the City Hall roofline, some trees, and the front <br />bridge. Annual material costs range from $500 - $1,000. Residential lights are used and <br />regularly need to be replaced. The estimated value of the staff time required is $2,500- <br />$3,500. Lights are installed in late fall. Typically, that is a busy time of year for Public <br />Works as they are closing out fall projects and preparing for winter snow removal. <br /> <br />4. RECOMMENDATION: <br /> <br />Staff recommends that Council approve the proposal from Russel Williams in the amount <br />of $10,500 for holiday lighting in 2022.
