MVEC

Developers

Street Lighting

1. MVEC provides street lighting to be billed either to the city, the subdivision association, developer, or customer.
2. MVEC can suggest a lighting layout (additional easements may be necessary). Please provide an approval letter from the city or municipality (if the subdivision is within the city limits) agreeing on locations and monthly charges for lights.

3. If the association/developer pays the monthly bill for street lighting,

   1. We require aid to construction for standard street lighting. We require aid to construction or cost if we set any new poles exclusively for the purpose of serving street lights. Normally, the minimum cost for each new wood pole is $750.00

   2. We require additional aid to construction if the lights require construction which is not normal lighting construction – to be determined by MVEC. (example ornamental lighting or more lights than normal)
   3. Monthly security light rates are applicable for poles and lights.
4. If the municipality pays the monthly bill for lighting, then MVEC does not require aid to construction in new recorded subdivisions in the city limits when subdivision lot allowance is not exceeded. However, if the city requires revisions to existing subdivisions, then we do require aid to construction equal to the total cost of the revision. Monthly rates are applicable for lights only.
5. Customer may request individual security lighting. Aid to construction or costs are applicable as shown in tariff and C. 1, 2, and 3 above.
