§ 159.05 CLASS IV LIGHTING (OFF-STREET PARKING LOTS).
   (A)   All luminaries shall be full-cutoff optic fixtures.
   (B)   Either incandescent or metal-balide (i.e., white color) sources shall be used for parking areas, unless otherwise approved by the Mayor.
   (C)   All pole and lamp casings shall be a dark color (i.e., brown or black).
   (D)   The lighting system for open parking areas shall be so designed to produce an average maintained light level on the entire facility's parking surface in a range from two-tenths (0.2) footcandle to three (3.0) footcandles. The average-to-minimum uniformity ratio shall not exceed four to one (4:1).
   (E)   A maximum of four maintained foot-candles is permitted within 50 feet of the customer-only entrances to commercial buildings which adjoin parking areas, during operating hours. The 50-foot area shall be excluded from the average calculated maintained light level for projects with adjoining parking areas of 250 or more parking stalls. If the adjoining parking area has less than 250 parking stalls, the 50-foot area shall be included in the average calculated maintained light level.
   (F)   All Class IV Lighting shall conform to §§ 159.06 and 159.07.
   (G)   All Class IV Lighting shall be mounted at the same height. The height shall be determined by adhering to the design requirements in divisions (A) through (E) of this section, but is not to exceed 25 feet above grade.
