REGULAR MEETING
TITLE
Oak Forest Wall Light Replacement
SUMMARY
A capital project has been identified for the Oak Forest Wall, and FY20 funding is
requested. The funding source for this project will be the Oak Forest fund balance,
which is projected to be $94,287 on September 30, 2020. In October 2019, issues
were found relating to the landscape lighting in the planter beds at the entrances
to the Oak Forest community. The City has invested considerable time and effort
working with residents in the Oak Forest community to repair the issues as they
occur.
The current landscape lighting system is residential grade and was not intended
for commercial use; it has reached end-of-useful-life and requires replacement.
The lighting and underground wiring for the system have reached a level of
deterioration that would require more money than the system is valued at.
The cost (including labor) to replace the current system with commercial grade
fixtures, transformers, and wiring is approximately$6,300.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the City Commission approve a not exceed $7,000
supplemental appropriation from the Oak Forest Maintenance fund to replace the
landscape lighting system.
