City Council Agenda Item Request
Agenda Item Requests and supporting documentation must be submitted to the Clerk of Council by
4:00PM on the Thursday prior to the next scheduled Council meeting. If this form is received after the
deadline, the item will be listed on the next scheduled agenda.
Council Meeting Date for Request: September 12, 2013
Item: Agreement with GA Power to change out the 8— 1000 watt Metal Halide floods with 285 LED lights -
playground, basketball court and volleyball courts lights but not the tennis courts lights—There is concerned
that the floods may do a better job. Once GA Power installs the new LED lights and look at them, the city staff
may determine that they will be sufficient light for the tennis courts.
City is presently paying $ 57.65 per light monthly. This number does not include the energy the lights use
which is captured in the meter. If the city changes the lights to 285 LED lights, that price will drop to $ 29.00
per light monthly. This will save the city$229.20 monthly and$2,750.40 annually. This includes the 4— 1000
watt lights (tennis court lights) that are there now. There are NO upfront charges to the city to do this and the
lights will use roughly 70% less energy when they are on. It is taking us 6-8 weeks to get these lights in, so this
is a time sensitive item for the city to be able to realize the energy and cost savings.
