Thus, if we are unsuccessful at the PSC, there is no way for the City to reduce its AmerenUE bill and We are planning on a 20% reduction energy usage unless it decommissions lighting. in street lighting. With funds received under the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (federal stimulus), we are hiring an engineering assistant to map all of the City’s streetlights to help develop the plan for decommissioning. The first lights to be considered will be those along the Olive Street commercial corridor. We may also ask private subdivisions to begin taking over the costs of the streetlights in their subdivisions. We have sent a letter notifying them about the program status. The letter is attached. Until we map all the streetlights, we will not know how many lights are in question. We expect the mapping to take place through the spring.
