[Amended 10-17-2016 by Ord. No. 792]
The developer shall submit roadway intersection lighting drawings
to the utility company providing electric power to the area being
considered for development. Installation of intersection lights, including
all appurtenances, shall be provided and must meet the minimum standards
specified by the applicable utility company.
A. Electrical. Electrical that shall be acceptable is 120-volt wiring
from electrical source to fixture head. Underground wiring shall be
in Schedule 40 PVC conduit from source structure (residence) to pole.
The depth of the conduit shall be a minimum of 12 inches below finished
grade. See Exhibit A for pole installation standard detail plan.
B. Photoelectric controls.
(1) The photodetector (photocell) must be located on the pole. The photodetector
(photocell) must work so the fixture (post head) illuminates from
dusk until dawn. All electrical components shall be UL recognized
and installed as recommended by the respective manufacturer.
(2) Electrical and photodetectors that are nonacceptable shall include
photodetectors (photocells) that screw into fixture (post head) sockets,
hard-wired clock timers, interior and or exterior toggle switches,
and 12-volt and/or any other system that is not 120-volt.
[Added 10-17-2016 by Ord.
No. 792]
A. Maintenance. The fixture (post head), lens, sockets, bulbs, pole,
power supply, and photoelectric control shall be maintained in a working
order. The fixture and pole shall be maintained in a complimentary
paint scheme to match the house/neighborhood theme. If the fixture
is damaged, missing or broken lens, bulbs not in working order, pole
is damaged or leaning, the power supply interrupted, photoelectric
control fails to turn on, and the post or fixture (post head) is unsafe
in any other manor, the item must be replaced.
B. Vegetation. Grass, annual and perennial plants, shrubs and trees
are permitted as vegetation around the pole and fixture (post head).
It must be maintained so the growth of the vegetation shall not block
or hinder the fixture (post head), lens, and photoelectric controls.
The vegetation must allow the light to project from the fixture (post
head) so the light emits outward and/or downward in all directions.
C. Holiday decorations. Holiday decor is permitted to be attached to the pole and fixture (post head). The bulb/light source shall not alter and must follow Article
XI, Light Source. Additional holiday lighting shall not hinder the photoelectric controls from normal operation. Holiday pole light covers (jack-o-lantern, Santa head, snowman head, etc.) in plastic material and bedsheet ghost (white fabric sheet) at Halloween shall be permitted as long as the holiday cover is displayed during the proper season and must not be displayed for more than 30 calendar days.
