Board declines additional spending on stop‑sign lighting; experiment unsuccessful

Apr 28, 2026

After AV‑Tech reported it could not successfully dim stop‑sign lights, the Board decided not to buy timer‑equipped signs and removed the item from future agendas; staff noted $9,280 had already been spent on four signs ($2,320 each).

The full story

Shane Willis reported on AV‑Tech's experiment to control the brightness of stop‑sign lighting and said the experiment was unsuccessful, leaving two options: retain the existing signs and manage lighting or purchase signs with timers. In response to a question, Willis said the overall cost for four stop signs to date was $9,280, or $2,320 per sign, as shown in the unaudited financial statements.
