Summarize Argument

There’s no problem in accepting the lighting company’s gifts, even though some people believe the company is trying to secure contract influence. Why? The city’s bidding process would prevent that influence. Also, the only ulterior motive that the municipal legislator can identify in the company’s gift is showing off their lighting products.

Identify Conclusion

The conclusion is that there’s no issue with the city accepting a lighting company’s gift of several high-tech streetlights: “there would be no problem in accepting these”.
