ution ~ ~•~ Approving a Project to Install Metered Lights on Tennis
s in General Roca Park; and Appropriating Rinds for the Project
of Parks and Recreation ~'
(4/5TH'S VOTE REQUIRED YES X NO )
tennis courts at General Roca Park are presently controlled by a time
~t so the lights come on automatically at dusk and turn off at 10:00 p.m.
A citize appear before the City Council to suggest that the lights be metered for "pay
as you p ay" on experimental basis. The metered lights would help recover part of the
cost for electri al power for lighting the tennis courts.
The est' ted co t for installation of four vandal-proof, coin operated time meters on the
tennis c arts at General Roca Park is $2,200, or $550 per court. The meters require 50 cents
for 30 m'nutes o play.
A conse ative e timate of an average of two and one-half hours play per night would yield
$2.50 pe night; per court. At this rate, it would take approximately 250 days to recover
the cost of the eters. After this cost is recovered, the yield for four courts is esti-
mated at $3,600 er year, minus the cost of staff time to service and collect the coins
from th meters. Present power cost for the four courts is approximately $4,500 per year.
