The California Street Light Association (CALSLA) advocates on behalf of the State’s cities, towns and counties on key issues related to street light and traffic signal infrastructure. On behalf of local governments this past year, we continued work on limiting LS-1 and LS-2 rate increases, additional facilities charges and fees, and are working to implement first in the nation adaptive/dimmable street light rates and tariffs.
CALSLA also informs member agencies about small cell attachment device legislation, LED retrofit rebate disputes and of course, the transition from older, and in some cases obsolete, street lighting technologies to LED. While CALSLA’s primary goal is to mitigate and reduce electric rates and facilities charges for street lights and traffic signals for California cities and counties, our scope has expanded to meet the inquiries and issues that local governments have identified to help manage these valuable assets.
