Committee reviews Christmas-decor contract renewal and GFI tripping on new streetlights
Summary
Committee members noted the Christmas Decor contract expired and discussed renewing the multiyear contract, the vendor's responsibilities, and electrical issues (GFI tripping) on newly installed streetlights that may require the vendor to provide electrical specifications.
Committee member (Speaker 2) reported that the contract for Christmas street-light decorations expired after the last season and that the company called Christmas Decor has been the primary installer. "The only thing we have responsibility for is that the power works," the committee member said, noting the vendor handles installation and maintenance under the contract.
Members discussed that new streetlights have tripped GFIs this past season, unlike previous lights, and that the cause may lie with the new fixtures or vendor equipment. A committee member said, "We're tripping GFI because there's a ground fault," and suggested the vendor should provide electrical details so the village can ensure the correct power infrastructure is available. The committee agreed the renewal and any adjustment to the count of street-light decorations should be reviewed when the contract comes in (expected renewal around June).
