Haakon Jarnes- 7207 142nd Avenue N.W. - Mr. James stated that he has contacted some <br />of the residents in Alpaca Estates regarding street lights and they were neither in favor of <br />them nor strongly opposed to them. Mr. James stated that with respect to the issue of <br />street lights providing for security, there has been very little criminal activity in Alpaca <br />Estates and the low lighting at night is appreciated. <br /> <br />Mr. Hartley stated that there may be some subdivisions where people want street lights and <br />one of the concerns the City is trying to work through is providing that level of service to <br />those persons that desire it when that same level of service is not provided throughout the <br />community and how that service can be justified and financed. <br /> <br />Keith Keefer - 6203 Rivlyn Avenue N.W. - Mr. Keefer stated that there are some <br />occasions where there is benefit to street lighting and he is concerned with the style of street <br />lighting that would be selected. Mr. Keefer stated that he would prefer to see a light style <br />with some aesthetic value selected for the area. Mr. Keefer suggested that funding be <br />arranged with some type of community fund raiser or some type of a beautification <br />program to provide lighting for those areas already existing that have been paying their <br />property taxes for many years. Mr. Keefer also stated that he does not believe that street <br />lights provide security, but that they are a benefit at intersections. <br /> <br />ADJOURNMENT <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember DeLuca and seconded by Councilmember Pearson to adjourn <br />the public heating. <br /> <br />Motion carried.
