The Clerk read the following report submitted by the City Engineer: At a recent meeting of the City Council, it was suggested that the present lighting at the intersection of El Camino Real and Broadway be improved by changing the present four (4) 10,000 lumen electroliers at this location to 20,000 lumen mercury vapor lamps.' This will involve the changing of the two (2) State owned and one (1) City owned electroliers, and one (1) P. G. & E. Company overhead luminaire. We have contacted the State Highway Department who have tentatively agreed to pay one-half the'cost of the improvement to their two (2) el.ectroliers at the neortheast and southwest corners 'respectively, ' Our estimate, a copy of which is attached, indicated that this work can be done for approximately $321.000 of which the State shore would be approximately $170.00. ItMis"our understanding that there will be no charge made by the P. G. & E. ComparW for conversion of their single overhead luminarire. The additional cost of power to the City will be approximately $20.40 per year. It is our recommendation that this improvement be authorized by the City Council so that we can complete negotiations with the State Highway Department for their share of the costs. The matter of removal of the existing obsolete type ornamental standards could be deferred to a later date after the ixpproved conditions have been observed and further studies made. Glenn M.
