Various subdivision street lighting rates may be utilized to reflect the cost of providing the cost of operating and maintaining the subdivision street lights depending upon the densities of neighborhoods being served by subdivision street lights. Areas without subdivision street lighting may request the installation of such street lighting through the following process. A petition shall be submitted to the City along with a map identifying the area requesting subdivision street lighting service. This petition shall be signed by a minimum of 35% of the property owners within the district of the petitioning area. The area of the petition request shall be reviewed by the Public Works Committee which shall approve or reject the reasonableness of the area to be considered for subdivision street light installation. Following approval of the petition area and certification of the required signatures on the petition, the City Council shall direct a feasibility study to be prepared and the installation of subdivision street lights shall be considered following the process outlined under the regulations of Chapter 4 of City Code and State Statutes 429 which regulate special assessment public improvement projects.
