Not only is lighting <br /> functional by providing illumination for sidewalks and streets; it can also contribute to <br /> the overall character of a place. <br /> The City should be prudent in determining when and where it installs street lighting. <br /> The most logical time to install it is when a street is being reconstructed. Street lighting <br /> within the City�should be uniform and properly scaled. <br /> With the reconstruction of North Washington Avenue and installation of street lights in <br /> 20�4, the City selected a decorative street lighting fi�ure and pole design that will used <br /> throughout the city as lighting is installed. <br /> � <br /> . t . <br /> � :� �: <br /> � <br /> � _� . <br /> � . �. __ <br />
