BACKGROUND Currently, roadway illumination costs the City of Tukwila as much as $190,000 each year in electrical utility costs. The latest advances in roadway LED lighting technology can reduce the power consumption for lighting fixtures by nearly 50 while providing more reliability and longer life to the fixtures. Also, the cost of LED fixtures has been going down over the years and is now only 20% higher than traditional light fixtures. We should expect to see lower utility costs and reduced maintenance calls as we begin to convert the older lighting fixtures that are on metered accounts throughout the City. The 2011 traffic control budget in Streets 000.16 and 104 Fund's Annual Traffic Signal Program both have remaining balances that can be utilized for this purchase. The Department of Community Development's (DCD) Energy Efficiency grant may also be utilized for this purchase. The Energy grant's timeline is being extended and given that some cities are not using all of their grant funds, we have requested additional funds. Rebates from Puget Sound Energy are also being pursued. This purchase was bid by 2 vendors and LEOTEK Electronics was selected based on LED unit cost per fixture.
