She also asked that Azurite and Nowthen, which is currently listed as <br />Priority C, be moved up. <br /> <br />Mayor Hardin inquired about the time table for taking care of Priorities A and B. <br /> <br />City Engineer Jankowski estimated about three months or so. <br /> <br />Councilmember Beyer suggested having the type of light that shines down as opposed to <br />on someone's house. <br /> <br />Mr. Jankowski replied that the City has a standard type of light and added that street lights <br />provide some security and safety plus serve as a locater. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Zimmerman and seconded by Councilmember Beahen to install <br />A and B priority lights and the residents will be billed using a 20-year amortization. <br /> <br />Further discussion: Councilmember Beahen inquired if the street lights would be re- <br />prioritized. Mayor Hardin suggested doing that at the Road and Bridge Committee level. <br />Mr. Schroeder commented that this will be a billed service and we will have the opportunity <br />to alert the citizens. <br /> <br />Motion carded.
