Respondent: Cllr Silvia Collins
Community Safety Considerations - Lighting:
As picked up in the movement section of this consultation, there needs to be sensitivity about where LEDs are placed and how they may affect nearby properties. Good lighting is essential for safety but lamp heights, along with lighting intensities and temperatures should not result in nuisance or be out of character with the surroundings. It would be useful if both temperature and intensity could be controlled remotely in order to be able to respond to local residents when they raise issues. It is very resource hungry to have to fit filters on individual lamps.
