This program included street lights. The City contracted with Puget Power to convert all mercury vapor lights to sodium vapor lights. Since October 1987, 323 lights have been converted. You get the same amount of light with the new lights but you get better intensity for less wattage. In April of this year the project was completed.

The motion before the BRB is to annex the whole District to the City per the original request. The Mayor's resolution was drafted to get input from the Council so that the City can begin to negotiate with King County. The City can do one of two things either try to negotiate an interlocal agreement before August 9, but that is not possible on this complex of an issue; or second, the City can use the resolu- tion and hopefully the BRB will take this in good faith and let the annexation go forward to an election in November. Mayor Van Dusen explained that the resolution shows our good faith effort to negotiate in the future on the $30 million liability and, with the passage of this resolution, it will allow us to go out and start talking with the County right away. The Council discussed the proposed resolution and made sever- al changes. It was decided to bring it back to the Committee of the Whole for further review.
