STREET LIGHTING POLICY <br /> <br />Purpose: <br /> <br />It shall be the purpose of thc policy to provide a rational basis for thc location, type and method of <br />financing of municipal street lighting w/thin the City. <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />Two d_istinct classifications of street lighting are acknowledged. Priority arterial street lighting <br />consists of lights placed at key intersections and other priority locations within the City. The chief <br />benefit from this type of lighting shall be for improving safety at the intersection and as a <br />navigation a.id to motorists, Because of the general nature of the benefits from this type of lighting, <br />it shall be £manced through the City's general fund. <br /> <br />Subdivision lighting is the second classification of street lighting. The major benefits from this <br />type of lighting is increased pedestrian safety, particularly in areas without sidewalks, and <br />increased crime prevention. These benefits occur chiefly to residents of the subdivision, who <br />should be involved both in the decision to provide such street lighting and the financing of the <br />system. <br /> <br />Priority Arterial Street Lighting: <br /> <br />Priority arterial street lighting locations shall be limited to intersections at the state trunk highways, <br />county roads and arterial city streets. Sequential priority levels shall be established which shall <br />generally utilize traffic volumes as the chief criteria. However, other criteria affecting priority shall <br />include a) high frequency of nighttime accidents; b) marked pedestrian crossings at schools and <br />parks; and c) unusual sight lknitations. The City Engineering and Police Departments shall jointly <br />establish, maintain and periodically review the priority locations listed below: <br /> <br />Prioriw A - VeW Much Needed <br /> <br />Co.
