He said, <br />"I had originally understood Mr. Belch’s request to be that the <br />City help him provide a method of paying for the lights. That is <br />incorrect. The neighborhood is asking that the City pay for the <br />lights. The issue then is v/hether the City is willing to take <br />financial responsibility for those lights.

We would pay the utility company and assess <br />the property owner for the cost. This process v/ould only require <br />a Public Hearing prior to the first assessment. There is now new <br />legislation that requires the City to have a Public Hearing every <br />year. That created additional work and cost for the City and we <br />stopped. As far as I know, we have not had a request such as <br />this for the last five years. There are presently 104 private <br />lights that are not being funded through the City." <br />Peterson asked if this request was different than the Derry <br />request. <br />Gerhardson replied- "Yes, this is different." <br />Mr. Norra Paurus, 2500 Casco Point Road, stated that this hasOR <br />- 17 - <br />mm
