Subdividers to Get Costs on Street Lights
Alameda County supervisors ordered a study to make subdividers finance street lighting for new tracts. A preliminary subdivision map will require a deposit to cover lighting costs, with residents able to join existing lighting districts or form new special services districts during a two year interim. The action follows Newark Homeowners Association requests for lights on four streets in Los Ranchitos, part of ongoing lighting aid requests in Eden and Washington townships. The plan may form districts in Eden and Washington townships and parts of Pleasanton and Murray, excluding cities and existing service areas. The board also considers fire protection districts for newly urbanizing forest and brush lands currently funded by a county tax.
