Matzke722/7'-- Date: October 9,2002 Re: Emergency Beacon Light Program Authorize Pilot BACKGROUND: The Mayor recently brought the Emergency Beacon Light product to our attention. The light operates as a standard 60 watt incandescent light bulb, but when turned on twice in rapid succession, goes into a flashing mode. The light should be installed in a fixture visible from the street so that when emergency services have been activated by a 911 call, the responders can easily identify the residence. A program to sell these bulbs to the public has been successfully implemented by many cities and towns and the product is very popular with police and fire departments and ambulance services. The lamp is available from Response Technology Corporation and sells individually for $9.95. During October, which is Crime Prevention Month, Response Technology has a promotional offer of one case of 400 lamps at $4.59 each. At this price the lamps could made available to our customers for $5 each, including sales tax. BUDGET/COST: This program was not provided for in the 2002 budget, but could be funded from the energy efficiency line item. If we experience the same success as other cities there will be no budget impact and we will be able to provide an additional service to our customers. Our emergency service responders will benefit as well. RECOMMENDATION: The Light and Power Department recommends that we purchase one case of these bulbs for $1836 and make them available for sale in the billing office. If the bulbs sell out quickly, we can evaluate whether we want to continue the program (and if the sales price should be adjusted) and make a recommendation to the Light and Power Committee. REM 2-1 ememelliff The Emergency Beacon is a product of Response Technology Corporation , 1907 Courthouse Road • Stafford, VA 22554 800-449-6537 • FAX: 540-657-6350 www. emergencybeacon.com A BRIGHT IDEA FOR YOUR COMMUNITY Response Technology Corporation has a BRIGHT IDEA FOR YOUR COMMUNITY - it's a light bulb that can actually help emergency crews find your home - it's called the EMERGENCY BEACON. The EMERGENCYBEACON is an ordinary light bulb that becomes a flashing signal for help with the flip ofa switch. " The EMERGENCYBEACON fits any standard light bulb socket," said Response Technology President Gerald Walkos, "and can be used as your porch or yard light. In an emergency, simply flip your light switch twice and the EMERGENCYBEACON flashes, pinpointing your location and alerting neighbors that you have an emergency." Addresses sometimes are not clearly marked, mailboxes are grouped together, houses look alike, and it's not always easy to find where people live. The flashing EMERGENCYBEACON directs police, fire and rescue personnel right to your door. For more information about this bright idea - the EMERGENCYBEACON, please call 1-800-449-6531. Wholesale prices available.

Objective: Devise a way to bring the map from the computer to a usable and practical form. Solution: Create a Map Book. Method: • Determined the scale at which all features become legible and can be discerned. • Placed a grid on top of the map to break it up into manageable pieces. • Used the grid provided from the Aerial Mapping project done in 1999. • Reviewed samples o f Map Books from other municipal governments. • Created a layout for each square on the grid. • Print Map Book. Benefits: • Light & Power map is practical to use. • Can be used in vehicles out in the field and the office. • Standard form ofreferencing the map. • Easier to update and keep current. • Ties in with other Map Books that will be created for Fire, Ambulance, Dispatch, Police, Water, Community Development, and Public Works. • Facilitate communication between the office and the field. • Eliminates the need for software ill order to use the map. • Portability. Notes- • Map Book is 322 pages. • In color. • 11" x 17" per page. ' PHASE TWO - BOND PARK STREETLIGHT DEMONSTRATION '-l - M--4 11 ro .

Promenade - F Promenade - S Promenade - M .e .. 1. -r . 1,- 1.04\- I j Town Commons - S Town Commons - M 1 - Municipal Memo By Richard Matzke and Laurie Button Area residents and visitors may have noticed that there is a new assortment of streetlights featured in Bond Park. Each of these fixtures is a variation of the most popular designs from last spring's first display. Those styles were the Cooper, Town Commons and the Gaslight. In addition to a difficulty in obtaining replacement parts for the existing lights and poles, increasing awareness of stray light and inefficient lighting were also reasons for the initial study. To maximize our options in this subsequent study, different kinds of light sources, lenses, wattage levels and pole heights are included in the new demonstration. All of the lights displayed include optics built into the fixtures, minimizing stray light and enhancing illumination on the ground below. LAMP COLOR The original Bond Park display included seven metal halide lamps (three - 70 watts, four - 150 watts) and one high pressure sodium lamp (150 watts). Many people who responded during the study felt the lights were too bright and harsh. Color temperature is a measure of the light source's color and a higher temperature indicates a whiter light. An additional factor to be considered is the Color Rendition Index (CRI). The CRI is a ratio ofthe light source's spectrum compared with that of an incandescent light bulb. A higher CRI number indicates a truer rendition of color provided by that light source. Another term frequently used when discussing lighting is "lumens." Lumens per watt is an indicator of the lamp's efficiency. A higher number is more efficient. LAMP TYPES These are the types of lamps featured in the current Bond Park display: • Metal Halide - average lamp life 10,000 hours; 70 lumens per watt; good CRI, whiter color • High Pressure Sodium - average lamp life 15,000 hours; 69 lumens per watt; lower CRI, yellow color • QL Fluorescent Induction Lamp - average lamp life 100,000 hours; 53 lumens per watt; good CRI; available in white or yellow color PHOTOMETRIC STYLE The Town's current decorative streetlights have no photometric quality in their design. Light is randomly scattered from a bulb within a translucent enclosure. Most of the fixtures in the new demonstration fall into two categories: horizontal cut off or vertical mount with an external refractor. The horizontal cut off design is best at limiting uplight from the fixture. This design works best when combined with a clear lens. These fixtures have little side glare, but the source of light is very strong to pedestrians passing underneath the fixture. This style also has a pronounced shadow at the base of the pole. The vertical mount fixture with external refractor does a better job of providing uniform light distribution in the horizontal plane, but does allow more stray uplight. Also, this fixture is more prone to side glare, but that is not as noticeable at lower lamp wattages (less than 150 watts). There is a vertical cut off fixture featured in the demonstration that combines the qualities of the two previous styles. POLE HEIGHT AND COMPOSITION During the course of the first demonstration, several individuals commented that the 12-foot streetlight poles were too tall. As a result, four of those have been removed and replaced with 10-foot poles instead. Several other respondents raised questions regarding the strength and durability of fiberglass poles. Addressing that concern, this display also features a fluted steel pole. THE NEW DISPLAY As in the first demonstration, the name of each lighting style is posted on a wood sign attached to the appropriate pole. The letter on the sign after the name indicates the type of bulb used in that particular fixture. Again, those types are: "M" - metal halide; "S" - sodium; and "F" - fluorescent. Ballot boxes will be available on October 14th in the Municipal Building Lobby, as well as in the foyer of the new Town Board Room. There will also be a page dedicated to the project on the Town's web site at www.estesnet.com. Navigate to the Community Information section and click on the link located there. Ballots can also be submitted online beginning Oct 14th. Questions and comments about the streetlight project should be directed to the Light and Power Department at 577-3588.
