FT. PIERCE, FLORIDA 3;454 <br />During phone conversations with Messrs. Hamilton and Davis, we understood <br />that the Commission has requested separate street lighting agreements <br />for Lighting Districts, specifically Laurelwood Subdivision. <br />The intent of these agreements is to form a contract binding FPL to a <br />governmental body such as a city or county. We are not permitted to <br />form these contracts with sub -groups or individuals on the same basis as <br />with a city or county because of differing financial requirements. Other <br />than with a governmental body, we are required to collect the entire cost <br />of material and construction up front and then refund the payment over a <br />ten-year period. As you can see, counties and cities have special <br />privileges for free installation of fighting facilities that should not <br />be disrupted in Indian River County. <br />Would you please ask the Commission to reconsider their request? I can <br />meet with you to discuss the problem, if you wish. We're not quite sure <br />why the Commission requested the change, but we certainly _�.ould like to <br />satisfy their requirements, if possible. <br />HRR: slt <br />EW4 <br />Sincerely yours, <br />d , <br />H.
