Masbusth Zoning Administrator City of Orono P.Q. �o:E5 Crystal Bay, MN. 55323 Dear Jeanne: At your suggestion, I am writing to request approval to re-install security lighting in the east parking lot on our property. At your earlier request,the fixture which the Art Center had previously maintained to illuminate this parking lot was dismantled because it was located on Marty Schneider's property after the property division; however, in the absence of this fixture, we find that students and visitors to the Art Center do not have adequate security lighting during the evening hours when classes and events are being held. So that student and public safety can be improved, we have sought a proposal from NSP to install new security lighting. NSP has recommended adding lighting at two locations, in order to give adequate illumination to the parking area;the locations are noted on the attached site plan. One set of lights would be added to an existing utility pole maintained by NSP on Briar Street;these would be aimed down into the parking lot. A second light pole would be added by NSP near the parking median,with the lights aimed down and towards the Art Center. NSP would provide and maintain directional nightwatch lamps, which are 250 watt, high-pressure sodium. They are aware of the need to aim the lighting downward and into the parking lot, and not at nearby residential properties. The Art Center has been concentrating on clean-up and safety enhancement of the parking lots on this property,for the benefit of our students and the quiet enjoyment of our residential neighbors. We will be exceeding 3000 enrollments this year, and the increased number of students underscores the need for improved safery (the building is open until 10:00 p.m.,four nights each week). We would appreciate your approval of this lighting plan so that we may complete the project at the earliest possible date. �ncerely, Ann Larsen Executive Director enclosure ,J—J .J ..r...�.� � ��,. , , . .,. .., .�. ........,._._. `'.1""V"�'�1"CL ri�r�V�.... i •, � I ^�y y_�r �� �'' �1��J Aj�l � �t __._ — � I -- no oov :i.F�t ,t000ur�--; I `�'dl1J�► _ �`,E N�rd � --■ '' �,�_ . ��---.___- � _-_- ,' ' �,.'
