The disc~ssion at the Oct~ber meeting expanded to dO 0;0 <br />mclude placement of pnonty street lIghts on traIls. The CommIttee requested Park and <br />Recreation review lighting on intersections of trails and streets. The Street Lighting Policy is <br />being revised and the Committee would like lighting of trails included in the new policy. <br /> <br />ParkslUtilities Supervisor Riverblood indicated the question was that if there is mid street <br />crossings should they be illuminated. <br /> <br />Chairperson Johns thought it seemed like most of their crossings are at lighted intersections. She <br />wondered if the light could be a lower street light and not so tall. <br /> <br />Commissioner Lehman indicated in his development, they have more of a lantern type light. <br /> <br />Civil Engineer II Linton thought it could be contact sensitive to what they are lighting. They <br />would have to identify a need and determine what would be best at that location. <br /> <br />Chairperson Johns thought if a connection came out at a County road, she thought they would try <br />to light it but she also thought they would try to avoid a crossing there. <br /> <br />Commissioner Lehman stated safety is a concern and they should light the areas needed. <br /> <br />Motion by Commissioner Lehman, seconded by Commissioner Hansen, to recommend placing <br />priority street lights at trail intersections with State, County or State Aid roadways and forward it <br />to Public Works. <br /> <br />Motion carried.
