SOLAR LED LIGHTING SOLUTIONS

Dear Sales,

I would like to get some information to share with a few of the board members in our development. At this time we are doing research and looking for data (cost, delivery, installation, warranty,etc.) so that we may evaluate and justify the actual project.

I have looked at your information on the website but there is no cost data posted. I would like to get a cost estimate for the noted statement of work.


Statement of Work 
1. 4/5 solar street lights with wide illumination path.
2. Aluminum poles cemented in place. Low profile cement enclosure close to ground level.
3. Cobra style light head configuration. 
4. All required wiring, solar panels and storage battery bank.
5. The lights come on automatically when the sun goes down and they turn off when the sun comes up.
6. Standard yearly service contract if required.   

Poles ( page 31) - Aluminum, 12 to 30 feet of overall length, Direct burial, Bolt down, Standard Sol colors available including satin, Available with 3.5” tenon .... Why chose Aluminum: fairly light weight, high strength aluminum poles are fairly easy to ship and install. Aluminum poles are typically round and tapered and widely available.

LED Light Engines ( Page 26) - Ideal for: Streets and Wide Path IES Type II or III Distribution

If there is a salesperson in our area I would like to discuss with him/her with other board members present to discuss details as required so we have a better understanding on this subject. 

You may also send data by email so we can get an idea specifically on the cost.

Regards, 
Bob Scully

January 15, 2011 Meeting Attendees

2011 Budget Forecast

Mailbox Turnout Pavers

There was discussion about parking/stopping at the mailbox in the street to get mail, thus impeding traffic flow. In the past the board has suggested we not drive or park on the grass.

A suggestion was made to look into putting paver's ( similar to whats in the photo) down where the grass is to allow for cars to pull in out of the street.

The area is between the sidewalk and the street asphalt ( grass edge) as you drive into the development. Another idea is to do the same on the opposite side of the street on the way out of the development.

The company that did Utta's driveway (photo)will be asked to provide a bid to do the job.

Street Lights - Solar Power

There was discussion about solar powered street lights to help light up the streets at night. If anyone knows anyone who has some expertise in this matter or is in the business, please let the board know.

There were mixed feelings about this subject at the meeting last week. At this time we are doing research and looking for data (cost, delivery, installation, warranty, local vendors in Vero, etc.) so that we may evaluate/justify the actual project.

Statement of Work - 4/5 street lights.
