Engineering/Building Inspection Director McMullen presented to the committee Ald.
Schroeder’s request to approve a streetlight in Plum Creek Subdivision on Providence
Way and Janesville Road. Director McMullen advised the committee that he felt that
the streetlight is warranted at that location and requests that the City authorize the
installation of that streetlight which will result in a cost to the City of $12.00 to $18.00
per month. WE Energies will pay for the installation. Director McMullen also noted that
the installation of this streetlight should have been addressed in the Developer’s
Agreement but was overlooked by staff in its finalization. Ald. Madden moved to
approve authorization of the streetlight installation on Providence Way and
Janesville Road. Seconded by Ald. Buckmaster, motion carried 2-0. It was noted
that the request is to place it in the median and although the typical location would be
on the southeast corner, Director McMullen stated it would not be a problem to have it
placed in the median.
