REPORT OF 1HE CITY ELECTRICAL DEPARTMENT
<br />To The Honorable Board of Public Works and SaNty.
<br />Gentlemen:
<br />July 14, 1947.
<br />441
<br />Talbot Street is one block long but it is an exceptionally long block. There is a-6000 lumen light at South
<br />Bend Avenue and Talbot Street, and a 1000 lumen light at Howard and Talbot Streets, but it is dark in the middle
<br />of the block because of dense foliage.
<br />This street is lined on both sides with large trees with inter- lacing foliage over the street, giving the street
<br />the appearance of a tunnel at night. The tee limbs are so low no light from existing facilities can penetrate
<br />to the middle of the block even with a 6000 lumen light at the north end.
<br />Trimming the trees so light can get through would be a big help to this block with present facilities, but
<br />if this cannot be done,'I will recommend that a 1000 lumen light, overhead construction, be installed about
<br />the middle of the block. This type of light will cost $19.20 per year.
<br />Respectfully submitted.
<br />11M. F. QUALLS, Supt.
<br />Councilman McCarthy made a motion that the report be accepted and referred back to the Board of Public Works
