RE: Buckhorn Estates Subdivision – Street Light Installation
City of Yelm Project No. SUB-03-8340-YL
Dear Brandy:
This letter is to respond to your street light request on September 3, 2004. Capitol Electric submitted cut sheets for the street light installation. The request was to modify the
accepted City of Yelm standard street light installation. Currently the City installs its streetlights, “hard wired” into the distribution system and the City pays a fee for the monthly
use as written in the franchise agreement with that utility.
Your request was to install the streetlights with junction boxes, power meter(s), and separate circuits. With this installation, the homeowners would be required to pay the fees and
maintenance associated with a public street lighting system.
The City staff has reviewed and considered your request. The street lights will be located in the roadway right of way and be considered publicly owned. At this time the city is not
able to approve your request. Please proceed with the City of Yelm standard street light installation process. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact me
at (360) 458-8438 or email at jimg@ci.yelm.wa.us.
Respectfully,
Community Development Department
