DISCUSSION
In 1927, the Floral Park Neighborhood was one of the first neighborhoods in 'the City to Install
streetlights. The entire neighborhood, with the exception of 1 1/2 blocks of Heliotrope Avenue,
was outfitted with vintage style streetlights,
In 1953, the City installed ten non - antique style streetlights on the remaining 1 1/2 half blocks of
Heliotrope Avenue (Exhibit 1), These streetlights do not match the historic aesthetics of the
neighborhood. Consequently, the Floral Park Neighborhood Association raised the funds to
cover the cost of purchasing ten antique -style streetlight poles.
Approval of this recommended action will allow the City to accept the donation of ten antique -
style, reproduction cast iron streetlight pales from the Floral Park Neighborhood Association,
valued at $42,250. The Floral Park Neighborhood Association will purchase the new streetlight
poles and donate them to the City so that they may be installed under the City's current streetlight
project in that neighborhood.
