What
to Do With Problem Street Lights
Those Pesky Posters
Posting signs or advertisements on light or utility poles is
illegal in Monterey.
City Code, section 31-8(d), prohibits attaching
any sign - including lost-pet notices - to trees, shrubs, utility poles
and the like.
So, the next time you have a garage sale or want to
promote your favorite band, please don’t post your signs on public
property.
Please promote a beautiful Monterey.
What to Do With Problem
Street Lights
If you need to report on a “bad” street light within the City,
please do the following:
Record the pole number located on the pole,
e.g., 122E.
If you are unable to identify the pole number, please note
the location, including the closest street address and/or cross streets.
Tell us what is wrong with the light, e.g., burned out, flickering,
damaged or on all the time.
Call our Maintenance Division at 646.3927.
Depending on whether the light pole is owned by the City or Pacific
Gas & Electric (PG&E), it may take from two days to two weeks to
respond to the request. City crews generally repair City-owed lights in
one to two days.
Own Your Own Heron
Miniature copies of the Great Blue Heron
“Taking Flight” sculpture, which now rests at Lake El Estero near the
fountain, are available for sale.
Made of bronze just like the
original, the 14-inch miniatures are on display in the lobby of the City
Council Chamber, at the corner of Madison and Pacific streets.
Call
the Colton Hall Museum at 646.5640 for more information. Each one costs
$500.
All proceeds from the sale of the miniatures will help support
public art in the City of Monterey.
