Appropriate City Plan Principles and Policies achieved by this O.D.P.:
Principles and. Policies
Policy.CAD71.5 Street Lighting. Lighting fixture design and illumination should be tailored to
match the context of the.street. Lighting levels should be designed to emphasize the desired
effect and not the light source, avoiding sharp contrast between bright spots and shadows,
spillover glare, and preserving " dark sky" views at night time.
a) The City should continue to explore new design options for. the, types of fixtures'
available for•use:within any street condition, which enhance the street environment by
establishing a consistent style with height, design, color and finishes.
b) Residential street light fixtures shall be designed for.human, pedestrian scale, while ,
providing an adequate level of illumination for safety.
c) Where higher pedestrian activity occurs, such as associated with neighborhood or
community centers, districts,.or transit stops, a combination of lighting options should
be considered -- such as exists in the Downtown -- with high mount fixtures for broad,
distribution of light within the street, and with smaller pedestrian -oriented fixtures along
the sidewalk corridors.
A comprehensive lighting plan will be designed to enhance the aesthetic and safety
characteristics of this site.
Policy CAD-4.2 Lighting and Landscaping. Security lighting should generally be at low, even
levels to create comfortable area -wide visibility "and not highly contrasting bright spots and
shadows. Lighting should be selected to reduce glare and preserve "dark sky" views of night
skies. Landscaping should be designed to avoid hidden areas', particularly where such areas
may be used at night, such as near building approaches and "entrances. City Plan Principles
and Policies Community Appearance & Design
High cut-off fixtures will be utilized in all parking lots.
Policy ECON-1.4 Jobs/Housing Balance. The City will strive to ensure that reasonable balance
exists between housing demand created by growth in lower income jobs and residential
development capacity. The City will encourage existing and future major employers locating
within the City to develop employer -assisted housing programs for lower income employees.
The City should provide technical assistance to employers wishing to obtain information on
model programs. City Plan Principles and Policies Economic Sustainability.
This project will be providing homes primarily for lower -income individuals'and families.
