Where lighting is placed at a lower height to support visibility for pedestrians, ensure that it is vandal - resistant. A ❑ Ensure inset or modulated spaces on a building facade, access/egress routes, and signage is well lit. e In areas used by pedestrians, ensure that lighting shines on pedestrian pathways and possible entrapment spaces. e Place lighting to take into account vegetation, in its current and ❑ mature form, as well as any other element that may have the potential for blocking light. 6 Avoid lighting of areas not intended for nighttime use to avoid ❑ giving a false impression of use or safety. If danger spots are usually vacant at night, avoid lighting them and close them off to pedestrians. e ❑ Select and light "safe routes" so that these become the focus of legitimate pedestrian activity after dark. ■ ❑ Avoid climbing opportunities by locating light standards and electrical equipment away from walls or low buildings. 6 Use photoelectric rather than time switches for exterior lighting. e In projects that will be used primarily by older people ❑ (retirement homes, congregate care facilities, senior and/ or community centers, etc.) provide higher levels of brightness in public/common areas. 9 Other WK 1.8 Mix of Uses ❑ Conforms in mixed use buildings increase opportunities for natural a Revise surveillance, while protecting privacy. 7 NA Comments: Bulletin #022 —January 1, 2011 Page 5 of 9 k:\Handouts\CPTED Checklist Section and Performance Standard ✓ Functional Area Performance Standard Strategy ■ Applicable during Site Plan Review 6 Applicable during Building Permit Review Evaluation for Agency Use Only Where allowed by city code, locate shops and businesses on lower floors and residences on upper floors.
