This includes the streetlight fixture, the arm, any and all wiring above the ground feeding the streetlight from Oncor (excludes any wiring associated with the utility distribution network), base (where applicable), and the pole (if a standalone pole). The City has engaged Tanko Lighting, a streetlight consulting firm, to help facilitate this matter. The City would prefer to negotiate and reach a mutually agreeable purchase price with Oncor, as it is the most advantageous path for both parties. However, the City is aware and willing to utilize alternative options to secure and finalize the transfer of ownership, if necessary. The City is open to discussing this matter further. Please contact me by March 17th to schedule a time to meet. Thank you for your time and attention.
