[OMS_MANAGERS] Up lighting street trees

[Al Petersen]

I'd be curious what your zoning code says about up-lighting.  Usually the
codes are written to discourage up lighting, or increasing light into the
night sky.  Some cities forbid up-lighting, (Alburqueque NM for one.)

 

Just a thought.

Subject: [OMS_MANAGERS] Up lighting street trees

 

Hi All,

 

Downtown Tigard has secured funding to up light street trees on Main Street-
The concept is to get away from Twinkle lights that require installation and
de installation annually and in some community invites vandalism. 

 

Our thought is an LED programmable light (2 per tree) that we can change
colors throughout seasons or use generic white- we have plugs at each tree.

 

Have other communities ventured this direction?

 

Thought, comments, product sourcing, successes are appreciated as we begin
this exploration.
