Mrs. Kester stated the petition was signed by 100% of the residents on Corte Espada, indicating that the residents want their street lights on and would like the City to pay for this cost. Vice Mayor Mercer explained that the street lights were turned off with the passage of Proposition 13, when it was not known what the financial situation of the City would be as a result of that legislation. He stated the City is in excellent financial condition at this time and that in the foreseeable future it should be in an even better situation. He stated he favors turning the streets lights on that have been turned off. Councilmember Brandes stated that consideration had been given to turning off street lights even before the passage of Proposition 13 because of the energy crisis, which he felt has not diminished. He stated there is validity to the concern regard- ing inequity of the street light policy. Mr. Warnick advised that he has a meeting scheduled next week with Mr. Yee of PG&E, to discuss lights that might be needed, and then PG&E plans to proceed with removal of poles that are not energized. Councilmember Mohr stated she regularly receives calls regarding street lights, and feels this is a important matter to the residents of Pleasanton. She stated it is one of her top priorities to get street lights turned on. Councilmember Wood stated he is in favor of turning on street lights and feels that revenue that will be added to the budget by other means will pay for turning on the lights. Vice Mayor Mercer advised this matter will be discussed further at the budget hearing scheduled at the City Council meeting on June 28, 1983. Ms. Nancy Olheiser, 4432 Denker Drive, stated that Denker Drive and Dotman Road are in dire need of repair. Mr. Warnick advised he is aware of this situation.
