City Council Policy: Streetlight Design Standards
Whereas, the goals of adopting a standardized streetlight design are to have continuity between
various and diverse neighborhoods of the City of Brookings, and facilitate the efficiency of
maintaining parts and supplies for a limited number of standardized streetlight components.
Whereas, the objective of adopting standardized streetlight design is to implement the above
stated goal but retain some flexibility to accommodate complimentary and consistent usage of
streetlight design where they are contiguous or sufficiently similar to downtown central
business district, and the right route street system servicing SDSU, do not increase the cost of
lighting unnecessarily to the City, and do not unduly compromise lighting quality in
neighborhoods.
Therefore, It Shall Be the Policy of the City of Brookings that the City shall adopt a uniform
streetlight design. Said design shall be recommended by Brookings Municipal Utilities as being
the most advantageous to service residential streets and neighborhoods, and that such lighting
design be under the streetlight finance program.
It shall further be the policy of the City of Brookings that deviations from the standardized
design shall be only for the historic design characterized by the downtown central business
district from the Streetscape Improvement Project of 2009, and shall be allowed only in
previously approved areas; in are that are contiguous and directly complimentary to the
downtown central business district; and shall be allowed for the SDSU ring route street plan
under terms and conditions of said plan subject to the approval of the City.
Passed and Approved this 12`h day of October, 2010.
