Williams,Jr., City Manager � <br /> Bruce A. McNabb, P.E., Director of Public Works� <br /> Matthew C. Newell,P.E., Traffic Engineer S�.Z,e-.� <br /> SUBJECT: Lighting Upgrade-Parking Garage C, Lower Level <br /> City Project 9736 <br /> An item on the agenda for the City Council meeting of Monday, October 20, 1997, is a <br /> resolution approving an agreement with Blank, Wesselink, Cook and Associates, Inc. to design a <br /> lighting upgrade for the lower level of City Parking Garage C, located on the northeast corner of <br /> Franklin and Wood Streets. <br /> The lower level of Garage C is cunently lighted with fluorescent lighting which is not as <br /> efficient for outdoor use as other available lighting systems. During colder weather, the <br /> fluorescent lamps do not light the garage to the desired level. Additionally, the age of the current <br /> lighting system is causing the facility to become increasingly labor intensive to maintain. Staff is <br /> confident that an upgaded lighting system will decrease ongoing electricity costs and maintenance <br /> labor while increasing the light level. A higher level of safety for �arage patrons will be the <br /> ultimate result. <br /> The design work will have a totallump sum cost of$7,300 that will be paid for with funds <br /> allocated in the Motor Vehicle Parking System budget. <br />
