New Street Lighting Contract Would Bind The City For 10 Years
A proposed street lighting contract with Pacific Power & Light would bind the city through Nov 1, 1926. It allows no city cancel option if municipal power is built, but enables rates and service to be governed by public service orders. The plan calls for 74 600 candlepower Mazda lamps replacing the 500-watt lights, with installation at city expense for new lamps upon request, and city payments of 5.50 per month per light with deductions for unlit lamps. The company will substitute lamps of equal or greater power and will keep lights burning every night barring uncontrollable events. Continued on Page 6.
