RIGHT-OF-WAY LIGHTING POLICY |
Committee
recommendations as amended
That Council approve:
1.
The City-wide Right-of-Way Lighting Policy as outlined
in Document 3, as amended:
That Section 4.12 of Document 3 be
replaced by the following:
Portions of the Beaverbrook
neighbourhood and the Chimo area of the Katimavik neighbourhood in the former
City of Kanata have "globe" style lawn lamps that were installed
along residential streets at the time the neighbourhoods were originally
developed. The two areas subject to
this Policy subsection are illustrated in D.3 Existing Lawn Lamps in Appendix D Map Schedules. The lawn
lamps in Beaverbrook are primarily located on private property, are owned by
the homeowner but have been maintained by the City. In the Chimo portion of Katimavik the lawn lamps are located on
the public street right-of-way and are owned and maintained by the City. In addition to the lawn lamps, there is
existing "marker" streetlights located at some street intersections
in both neighbourhoods.
Beaverbrook:
The lighting approach in Beaverbrook is
to keep in place existing intersection marker lighting and to upgrade all unlit
streets to “marker” lighting standard.
Marker lights will be installed at unlit street intersections and sharp
bends in roads. Such upgrades will
occur incrementally as Council approves required budgets. The new marker lights
are to be selected from Appendix B.
Approved Lighting Equipment:
When unlit streets are upgraded to the
marker lighting standard, written notice will be given by the City to each
affected homeowner that lawn lamps on private property will no longer be maintained
/ replaced by the City. Such
maintenance / replacement will be the responsibility of the homeowner as
of the date the written notice is given.
Electric power to the individual lawn lamps will continue to be paid for
by the homeowner.
Chimo Area of Katimavik:
The lighting approach for the Chimo area
of the Katimavik neighbourhood is to replace the existing lawn lamps with “full
continuous” street lighting. The
lighting equipment is to be selected from B.1, “Special Areas” lighting or from B.2 “All Other Areas” lighting in Appendix B, Approved Lighting Equipment. Consultation
with residents directly affected by the lawn lamp replacement will be
undertaken prior to lighting equipment selection. Such upgrades will occur incrementally at the time the existing
lawn lamps reach the end of their life cycle as determined by the Director of
Traffic and Parking Operations and as Council approves required budgets. When
the lawn lamps are replaced with street lighting equipment, the lighting levels
will be upgraded to meet the requirements of Table 2.1 Required Average Roadway Lighting Levels (i.e. to one half of the ANSI/IESNA recommended light
levels).
2. WHEREAS the lighting fixtures
proposed to replace city-owned lawn lights in Katimavik are very different in
appearance from existing lighting on most streets;
AND WHEREAS one of the goals of the
harmonization of policies in the City of Ottawa has been to preserve the
distinct character of our different neighbourhoods whenever possible;
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT fixtures
used to replace city-owned lawn light systems be those with some similarity to
the fixtures being replaced, even it means using fixtures recommended for
special areas.
CARRIED as amended by the following Motion:
Moved by Councillor M. Wilkinson
Seconded by Councillor E. El-Chantiry
And Right-of Way Lighting Policy Section 4.12,
first paragraph by adding to the sentence beginning with “The lawn lamps in
Beaverbrook are primarily located on both public and private property.”
