City announces streetlight-shield program, sidewalk progress and budget work

The city manager briefed the council on a range of operations items. Beginning Feb. 13 through March 6 residents may request streetlight shields via the city’s streetlight-conversion web page; Rocky Mountain Power is scheduled to install approved shields the week of March 9 and the city will cover initial shield costs for requests submitted during the first round. The manager said staff will help residents complete requests and asked applicants to provide pole numbers and light locations for shield installations.
