PRELIMINARY PLANS FOR 2014 NAVARRE STREET LIGHT AND SIDEWALK PROJECT David Martini stated the preliminary plans have been prepared for the Navarre streetlight and sidewalk project. The preliminary plans include 36 new light poles and fixtures on new concrete bases. The decision to have new concrete bases was based on discussions with Spring Park and their experience in attempting to reuse some of their existing infrastructure. Martini stated there are two existing lights that will be removed and not replaced on the east end of the project area. The one overhead light fixture will be removed and replaced with a light that will be directed on the Navarre sign as you enter from the east. All the existing controls will be replaced as part of this project and the lights will be turned on and off using a time clock. Martini indicated the red marks on the map depict the existing poles that will be removed and not replaced. The yellow mark depicts the city sign. On the south side of the road, east of the Holiday Gas Station, is where the first light pole would be replaced as part of this project. The proposed pole amenities include a flag holder, banner bracket, hanging basket bracket, and duplex outlet. Two fixture options would be bid out. Martini indicated the idea is that both of these would be bid out as alternates and the Council would then make a decision on which way to go on the fixtures at a later date.
