Attachment 1 <br />Final <br />March 4, 2024 <br />Page 1 of 5 <br />City of Roseville <br />Streetlight Policy <br />March 4, 2024 <br />I.Purpose and Need for Policy <br />The installation of streetlights provides a safer environment for the community in regard <br />to traffic and pedestrian safety. Due to limited funds and varying viewpoints of individual <br />property owners, as to the desirability of such installations, the City has established this <br />policy to define its streetlighting program. <br />II.Policy Statement <br />The City shall adopt and utilize the following standard policy for the installation, <br />maintenance, and funding of streetlighting. It is important to establish a consistent, <br />equitable approach, relating to the method of selecting the locations for streetlights, to <br />insure fair and reasonable treatment for property owners. Streetlighting in all areas of the <br />City shall follow the requirements detailed below. <br />III.Conditions <br />Allnew lights installed shall be full cutoff lights. <br />All new streetlighting must be consistent with the adopted City standards. <br />Variations to the City standard streetlight types will be allowed only by City Council <br />action. Extra costs associated with variations to the City standard, both installation and <br />ongoing operation and maintenance costs, will be the responsibility of the benefiting <br />properties. <br />All streetlighting designs shall consider industry standards, safety, uniformity, lighting <br />intensity and cost. <br />Qualifying requests for streetlights may be scheduled for installation in a subsequent <br />year if the City determines sufficient funds are not available in the current City budget. <br />On projects where pedestrian level lighting is installed, a continuous level of light <br />should be maintained for the design. Spacing would be determined applying <br />engineering standards. Spacing typically results in poles every 90 to 120 feet. <br />IV.Streetlight Districts <br />To develop a rational approach to streetlight installation, the City Council in 1957, <br />established a policy to install streetlights at no assessment to ensure that the lights would <br />be installed where most needed and wanted. <br />Since the need for lighting varies by adjacent use, different standards will apply as <br />follows. <br />A.Standard District <br />o This standard be used for all areas in the City unless they are defined as <br />Commercial, City Special or Enhanced districts as shown in Appendix A, <br />o Procedure <br />City of Roseville March 2024 <br />Streetlight Policy <br />Qbhf!79!pg!226 <br /> <br />
