The council approved a park board–recommended project to install a commercial photo-eye lighting control at Civic Wayside Park, funded and scheduled for installation before the holidays.

The City Council approved a park board recommendation to install a commercial photo-eye lighting-control system at Civic Wayside Park to better regulate park lighting and reduce recurring equipment replacements. Presenters said the project is fully funded and a contractor (Cascade) will install the system, likely before the holiday season.

Brian Free (presenter) explained the device will control park lights to run at appropriate times and reduce recurring small-purchase replacements. Council members asked about timing and contractor arrangements; staff confirmed the project is funded and the installation timeline targets completion before Christmas.

Next steps: council approved the project and staff will coordinate with the contractor on scheduling and installation.
