A certified engineer, architect, landscape architect, lighting engineer, or designer shall prepare the plan. The plan shall also contain a certification by the property owner or agent and the preparer of the plan that the street lighting depicted on the plan complies with these requirements. The submission shall contain all information which may be required by the City Engineer, including but not limited to the following: (a) Plans indicating the location of the lighting, and the type of illuminating devices, fixtures, lamps, supports, reflectors, and other devices. (b) Description of the illuminating devices, fixtures, lamps, supports, reflectors, and other devices. The description may include, but is not limited to, catalog cuts by manufacturers and drawings (including sections where required) and height of the Luminaires. (c) Photometric plan and data sheets, such as that furnished by manufacturers, or similar to that furnished by manufactures or the lighting designer, showing the angle of cut off or light emissions. (i)Light contribution from lighting systems outside the ROW shall not be considered in the photometric design of continuous arterial lighting systems.

Requests for additional street lighting shall be made to the Paris Police Department and decided upon by the Police Chief or designee. The Police Chief or designee shall consider the benefit of the street light to the surrounding area, the cost of service of the street light to the City, and any other factors appropriate and necessary to approve or disapprove the request. If the cost to install the requested additional street light exceeds the Local Service Provider's allowance, the additional cost shall be borne by the requestor. The City will provide only the monthly charge for the light. § 10.05.342 Street lights in the Downtown Sector and in overlay zoning districts and Planned Development zoning districts (PA). (a) Lighting in the downtown sector shall be coordinated with the Department of Community Development, which may, from time to time and in conjunction with the Engineering Department, vary the standards contained herein to account for unique historic or other considerations of the area.
