Summary

Creve Coeur approved Resolution 1793 to accept two existing Ameren post‑top streetlights in Martin Grove and Resolution 1794 to install three Ameren-mounted lights in Beacon Hill; the city will assume monthly maintenance costs for both projects.

Jim Hynes (identified in the record as public works) presented two related resolutions on neighborhood street lighting. Resolution 1793 asked the council to accept two existing Ameren post‑top residential‑style streetlights in the Martin Grove subdivision; Hynes said the lights are older fixtures and the city would assume the monthly maintenance bills.

On Resolution 1794, Hynes described Beacon Hill’s request for three lights mounted on existing utility poles and said the city would request Ameren install COBRA‑head style downcast fixtures at about 3,000 Kelvin. He said there is no cost to install the lights on the poles; the city will pick up the monthly bills.

Council members asked routine clarifying questions and the council approved both resolutions by unanimous vote.

The approvals mean the city will add the listed fixtures to its maintenance roster and begin paying monthly utility charges associated with those streetlights.
