(A) Applicable.
(1) Available to consumers where the city's standard outdoor lighting unit can be installed on utility's existing pole, and without requiring any extension or addition to utility's existing secondary or primary distribution facilities.
(2) Where additional facilities are required, the consumer shall pay in advance the total installation cost for the additional distribution facilities (poles, wires, and appurtenances) as required. In all cases, the lighting fixture, including lamp, will be installed, owned, operated, and maintained by the city. This service is available only where there is assurance that the service to be furnished will be permanent. The city reserves the right to refuse to furnish such service when, in the city's opinion, the installation will not be permanent in nature. This service is not meant to replace the requirement of the property owner to provide standard parking lot and building area lighting as required by the city's zoning code. Lighting of this nature shall be installed, owned, and maintained by the property owner.
(3) The City Manager may refuse or curtail service when in his or her judgment an installation will be objectionable to neighboring property owners.
(B) Character of service. This rate is available for all-night outdoor security lighting service for lighting of driveways and other outdoor areas on private property by aerial construction only, where such service can be supplied by the installation of lighting fixtures on existing city poles and supplied directly from existing secondary circuits on such poles, except as provided herein.

The city shall be allowed three business days after notification by the customer to replace all burned out lamps.
