Floodlights lighting the canopy are not allowed unless information is provided that clearly determines that the floodlights will not cause glare off-site. Wall-packs internal to a site that are not visible to a public road or a residential or agricultural district may be of any design. No specific limitation on mounting height unless specified as a condition of a zoning case. Lights must be designed with a sharp cutoff, typically a shoe-box style. Vertically mounted bulbs with a convex lens and prismatic lenses that extend below the shoe-box are no longer allowed due to poor glare control.
Lights are to be mounted with a fixed tenon mount to the pole, parallel with the ground.
Parking islands are required for tree plantings and not light poles. Otherwise, we suggest locating the poles on a concrete base at the juncture of 4 parking spaces. Please submit cut sheets to Greg Allen at the Planning Department. We will return to you an approval letter and stamped approved cut sheet for your marketing use.
