SUMMARY
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
An assessment of the existing street light infrastructure found that many of the City’s street light poles
are nearing the end of their service life and showing signs of rust and structural deterioration. This

durable materials, and improves system reliability reducing service disruptions caused by failing
equipment.
BENEFITS:
Ratification of the budget transfer will allow Public Works to move forward with replacing damaged street
light poles throughout the city, resulting in safer roadways for the public while reducing liability exposure.
FUTURE ACTION:
The Public Works Department will coordinate with Procurement to establish a contract and the issuance
of a Purchase Order.
FINANCIAL IMPACT STATEMENT:
Budget authority for the street light pole replacement will be transferred from capital to operating within
Public Works. No additional budget authority is required. No capital projects will be delayed due to this
transfer.
