him to discuss with the Oouncil the matter of installing a street light at
Lora Vista Street and ';;est Imperial iiighway. During the ensuing; discussion
it was brought out that a street light, formerly at this location, was removed
by reason of its having been hidden by the trees, thus rendering it practically
useless, and that there are a numnber of places within the City where a similar
condition exists.
Action in this specific case was deferred pending a survey to be made by
;he Council with a view-of correcting these conditions wherever they exist, if
practicable, it beinU understood that the lighting; of.the intersection referred
to in Councilman Gerow's report will be taxen care of at the same time other
char �e s are made.
