RE: Resolution 5171
Dear Laurae,
I appreciate you returning my call this morning to clarify my understanding of the mailed information
package concerning the intent to dissolve Special Improvement lighting District 706 and to modify
Special Improvement District 720.
My wife Robben and I have NO OBJECTION to the action suggested by the City of Bozeman as
indicated by the recent notifications received. As a licensed C-10 electrical contractor in the State of
California, I can only support and encourage the replacement of older-style incandescent or halide street
light systems with the installation of LED street lights due to their known significantly increased energy
efficiency and promoted longer life span.
Additionally,where feasible, I encourage the city to install stand-alone solar-powered, battery back-up
street lighting in area where there is no power currently established, further reducing the installation costs
of street lighting.
WE appreciate your efforts to reduce reoccurring monthly costs.
Best regards,
Ed Suhay
