23-1662 : Wyatt - Requesting Follow-Up to Audit on the Street Lighting System

Buffalo, NY December 30, 2025 - February 24, 2026

This resolution, sponsored by Council Member Rasheed N.C. Wyatt, requests a follow-up audit of the City of Buffalo's Street Lighting System by the Comptroller's Office. The original audit, adopted by the Common Council on February 5, 2013, aimed to identify potential savings and operational improvements for fiscal responsibility and public safety. A previous audit in the late 1990s resulted in over $1 million in reimbursements from Niagara Mohawk. This follow-up aims to evaluate changes since the last audit and identify further opportunities for savings and performance improvements. Copies of the resolution are to be referred to the City Comptroller’s Office, Department of Public Works, Law Department, and National Grid.
