INTRODUCTION - At the Council's October 8, 1990 Council meeting because o^ lateness of the hour Council tabled discussion of this Item although there did not seem to be substantial disagreement with exploring the route proposed in Attachment A for funding street lighting. DISCUSSION - Street Lighting Inventory - As noted the following number of lights: in Attachment D the City has Public lights Private lights Previously assessed by the City 66 Not funded through City 104 Future lights - In addition there is an unknown number of lights not currently constructed which people may desire to use in the future. The differentiation between the public and private lights is a function of the request. Public lights were put in generally as part of a public project principally along an arterial such as County Road 15. In addition certain street lights on the corners were put in response to requests. Generally private lights are ones that have been put in mid block or as part of a subdivision at the instigation of the owner without a decision by the City to have them Installed. (Exceptions may be in subdivisions that were required to install them by the City but at developer expense and maintenance.)
