Resident asks Council to turn off streetlight at pole V14R13; Council asks for written request and safety review
Summary
Resident Helaine Truthstone asked the Council to turn off the streetlight across from her house; staff reported Lane Electric and Lane County did not object, but the Council tabled action pending a written request and a review of dimming and public-safety implications.
Westfir resident Helaine Truthstone asked the City to turn off the streetlight at pole V14R13 adjacent to the City Hall driveway. City Recorder Nicole Tritten told the Council that Lane Electric and Lane County had not objected to turning off the light but recommended the Council receive a formal written request from Ms. Truthstone before taking action.
The Council tabled the matter in order to obtain a written request, to explore whether a dimmer could be installed instead of full shutoff, and to further consider public-safety concerns before approving any change to streetlighting.
