DESCRIPTION: This project provides for the periodic installation of in-fill street lighting on existing powerpoles on residential streets. The project also provides for the repair and/or replacement of deterioratedcomponents of the City’s street light systems such as street light poles, street light lanterns or globes,wiring, underground conduit, upgrading to energy efficient lighting, and painting of poles.
JUSTIFICATION: Enhanced street lighting in those areas where it is currently insufficient or nonexistentand the repair and/or replacement of deteriorated street light components will provide improved traffic andpedestrian safety.
SCHEDULE: This is a continuing program. Projects will be scheduled by City staff as requests arereceived for enhanced lighting and as street light components in need of repair and/or replacement areidentified.
RELATIONSHIP TO GENERAL PLAN: This project is consistent with the Seismic and Safety Element ofthe General Plan by helping to achieve and maintain an environment in which Pasadena residents canenjoy personal safety and security.
IMPACT ON THE NORTHWEST: Portions of this project may be located in Northwest Pasadena which isan area that has been targeted for revitalization.
HISTORY: This project was created and received initial funding in FY 2016.

DESCRIPTION: This project provides for the replacement of deteriorated components of the existing highvoltage street light systems and infrastructure. Circuits will be converted from high voltage series tomultiple circuits with energy efficient lamps. There are 23 identified circuits with approximately 1,226 streetlights that need to be systematically replaced.
Phase I consists of three circuits with approximately 220 street lights located in the southwest area of theCity.
JUSTIFICATION: Public safety as well as worker safety are the two greatest justifications for convertingthe existing high voltage series to lower voltage multiple circuits. Due to aged infrastructure, high voltagesystems experience intermittent service outages affecting entire neighborhoods. City field crewsexperience frequent grounding problems and lead shielded conductors are prone to electrical shorts aswell as transformer issues. The existing high voltage street lights run on 6.6 amp series circuits for whichtransformers are no longer manufactured and incandescent and mercury vapor lamps are no longeravailable. This results in high maintenance costs as well as unacceptable service, as the lights are ofteninoperative during rainy weather. Unlike a low voltage multiple system, if one light goes out on a highvoltage series circuit, all lights on that circuit go out as well. There is a need to systematically replacethese antiquated systems with an upgraded system which takes standard power inputs(120/208/277/480V). By converting the older incandescent bulbs to LED, the City will realize energy costsavings of at least 50 percent.
SCHEDULE: Construction will begin when funding is identified.
RELATIONSHIP TO GENERAL PLAN: The project is consistent with Land Use Element Policy 6.7(Public Safety and Community Design) by requiring that neighborhoods, centers, streets, and publicspaces be designed to enhance public safety and discourage crime by providing street-fronting uses(“eyes on the street”), adequate lighting and sight lines, and features that cultivate a sense of communityownership.
HISTORY: This project was created in FY 2016 and initially funded in FY 2017. In the early 1990s, manyof the existing high voltage post-top series circuits were replaced with low voltage multiple circuits. Thisproject will continue the work to complete the conversion of high voltage series circuits to their lowervoltage counterparts. In FY 2018, phase I design was completed.

DESCRIPTION: This project provides for the systematic replacement of existing precast concretestreetlight poles that are currently being utilized for traffic signal and streetlight purposes. The existingstreetlight poles will be replaced with standard traffic poles designed to handle mast arm mounted trafficsignal heads as well as upgraded mast arm mounted intersection safety lighting. This initial phase isintended to replace approximately 25 streetlight poles at ten high volume intersections.
JUSTIFICATION: Traffic signals were installed on precast concrete streetlight poles at various locationsthroughout the city. During the 2011 windstorm, several of the concrete poles were damaged. Replacingthe streetlight poles with standard traffic signal poles will improve reliability to withstand seismic and windforces, thus improving reliability of the traffic signal system and maintaining public safety.
SCHEDULE: In FY 2019, design of the first phase will be completed and construction is scheduled tobegin.
RELATIONSHIP TO GENERAL PLAN: This project is consistent with Land Use Element Policy 6.7(Public Safety and Community Design) requiring that neighborhoods, centers, streets, and public spacesbe designed to enhance public safety and discourage crime by providing street-fronting uses ("eyes on thestreet"), adequate lighting and sight lines, and features that cultivate a sense of community ownership;and Policy 35.9 (A Safe Neighborhood) by enhancing public safety.
