At least one light with underground wiring shall be installed for each lot or parcel when a new principal building is constructed on the lot or parcel. The post-type yard lights shall be installed on private property, but within ten feet of the street right-of-way line. Each yard light shall be controlled by a photoelectric cell or an electrical timer. The plan for the subdivision showing the location for each post-type yard light, etc., shall be reviewed by the City Engineer and approved by the City Planning Commission at the time of final approval of the subdivision plat. The property owners shall be responsible for the ownership, maintenance, repair and power for the post-type yard light system, and the subdivision plat and/or protective covenants shall include statements as to this requirement.
