AN ORDINANCE APPROVING A TASK ORDER WITH CDG ENGINEERS, INC. FOR THE DESIGN OF LIGHTING IMPROVEMENTS IN THE WYDOWN FOREST, HI-POINTE, AND DEMUN AREAS
City Manager Gipson reported that in September 2023, the City of Clayton entered into an on- call services agreement with CDG Engineers, Inc. for Streetscape, Lighting, and Landscape Architecture Services. CDG also did a study on residential street lighting and produced the 2018 Lighting Standards report for the city. The report for the areas of Wydown Forest, Hi-Pointe, and DeMun were identified as areas for improvement, due to maintenance concerns related to the existing direct burial electrical lines. The City of Clayton took over the existing systems in 1987, and the buried lines in these areas have been more prone to failure.
Matt Malick, Director of Public works, was in attendance to answer questions.
Alderman McAndrew introduced Bill No. 7028, approving the Task Order with CDG Engineers, Inc. for the Design of Lighting Improvements in the Wydown Forest, Hi- Pointe, and DeMun Areas to be read for the first time by title only. Alderman Buse seconded.
