$~BJEOT:
The Honorable ~yor ~ad Village Oounoil
The Village Manager
Street Lighting om 0onoord Boulevard & Wilshire Drive
Since the upgra~nE of W~lshire Drive it becomes apparan~ there is not enough
street lighting along Concord Boulevard frma the end of the fluorescent lights
to Fairview Avenue and that the lighting on Wilshire Drive is wholly inade-
quate. The Oouncil will remember an underground conduit ~s out under W~lshire
for the future development of fluoresosnt ~t~h~ and a pro~ed system of
fluorescent lightimg has been designed by Northern States Power for this
street, the cost of which is estimated at $22,9%0 which includes twenty-three
There is a feeling that this is not desirable at this ti~e because of the
lack of build-up on the street and other debts facing the tax payers. How-
ever, it is recommended thst the lighting be upgraded from both Concord
Boulevard be~een the end of ths fluoresoents and Fairview Drive, end on
Wilshire Drive. At present thc-re are four 2500 lumen lights c~ Concord
Boulevard between the Post Office and Fairview Drivet and on ~llshire Drive
there are t~o 6000 lumen lights and three 2~OO lumen lights between Concord
Boulevard anti Bartlett. Boulevard.
It is reoo~eended that the lighting on O~noord Boulevard be upgraded to 10,OO0
lumen completely and two new lights he added, and that all of the lights ~n
Wilshire Drive be upgraded to 10,000 lumen with one light being moved to a
different location. Attached hereto is a drawing which gets pretty complicated
beford you get through readings however, we have tried to draw the present
lights with Just a circle s-d the proposed new lights with a circle with an
"x" in them.
The prooosed cost of the new lighting would increase our street lighting
costs by $290 a year. We are now expending $260 a year for the present lights.
This upgrading would increase the cost to $~50 per year. In effect, we are
saying a Little over $20.00 net month would give us much better lighting on
these busily traveled streets.
REST ROOM BUILDING AT MOUND BAY PARK
The Manager recommends the old rest room buildings be torn down because of its
unsanitary condition and in view of our present use of a rental service, this
will also allow us to fill in the park at this point. The council approved
the action with out formal vote.
