title
Request for approval to execute a Service Outlet Location Statement for installation of an electric meter with CenterPoint Energy, LLC and authorize the County Auditor to pay monthly bills for electrical power serving a traffic signal at 19419 ½ Hufsmith-Kohrville Rd 3, UPIN 15104M23NP03, Precinct 3.
end
Background and Discussion:
Hufsmith-Kohrville Rd 3 is a road project which includes installing a permanent signal to enhance traffic movement. The service outlet location statement is needed to establish electrical service from CenterPoint Energy to power the traffic signal.
Expected Impact:
Approval of the service outlet location statement will allow CenterPoint Energy to establish electrical service to the permanent traffic signal, which is needed to enhance the operation of the intersection Hufsmith-Kohrville Rd & Woodland Shore Dr.
Alternative Options:
All traffic signals require a power source, which is typically obtained through CenterPoint Energy. Alternative options are to place a generator, which is not reliable, or not installed/remove the traffic from the intersection. Both options pose a public safety concern and will impact the operation and increase delay of the intersection.
Alignment with Goal(s):
_ Justice and Safety
_ Economic Opportunity
_ Housing
_ Public Health
_X Transportation
_ Flooding
_ Environment
_ Governance and Customer Service
