INETIATINO PROBLEM, ISSUE, OPPORTUNITY (Who, What, When, Where' Why):
A public hearing was held for each of the above- standard lighting systems. In each ca-
after hearing from various neighborhood district councils, business associations, prop - +ty
owners and staff, the Council apprrved both the construction of these systems and them
operation by the City on an assessment basis. It is required that a public hearing be held
each year for both the estimated o /erating costs and •then the actual operating costs. The
first above- standard lighting system began with the Lowertown system in 1983. These s stems
have increased at a rate of about : systems per year since then.
ADVANTAQES IF APPROVED:
This has become an annual budget procedure. Th assessment policy originated to allow the
direct benefitting parties to pay :or the additional operating costs and provide for u iform
maintenance of the system.
