years. 39- PROJECT NARRATIVE ( cont.) C. DESIRED OUTCOMES: Approximately 1, 000 street lights retrofitted with energy efficient LED street lights ( 50% savings over current lighting). More uniform, better quality street lighting in the southeast part of the City. Ninety gymnasium high -bay light fixtures replaced with energy efficient fluorescent lighting with occupancy sensors (40% savings over current lighting).

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: We selected item nine, replacement of street lighting with energy efficient lighting technologies. The map on the following page shows the network of City street lights by type, owned and operated by Gulf Power Co. We chose a primarily residential area with relatively low traffic volumes comprised of well established neighborhoods as the project site ( see map shaded area). The project site contains 1, 000 10OW high - pressure sodium cobrahead street lights attached to poles. The map also shows the location of each gymnasium in the city proposed for energy -efficient lighting retrofits. Street lighting has the added benefit of being a highly visible project to tax payers. The new lighting will not only conserve energy, but will be an enjoyable new lighting amenity for all in Fort Walton Beach. Recent studies have indicated that the white light produced by LED street lights provides a much more desirable environment than that produced by traditional yellow street lights. Pedestrians that commented on street light conversions to LED's in their neighborhood felt that the LED light was safer, brighter, and more uniform compared to the yellow HPS lights. Providing a more pedestrian friendly environment promotes multi -modal options such as walking, which reduces the use of motor vehicles and greenhouse gas emissions. LED street lights produce additional ripple -effect energy and cost savings as well since they last 3 -5 times longer than traditional street lights, maintenance and associated driving is reduced. LED's have other environmental benefits as well including reduced light pollution and contain no hazardous substances to dispose of such as mercury. Major tasks include: Street light retrofit. Gulf Power purchases LED street light fixtures. City of Fort Walton Beach issues Task Order to consultant for technical project assistance and energy and efficient conservation strategy development. Gulf Power crews begin street light replacement. Gym light retrofit: City of Fort Walton Beach specifies and purchases T -5 florescent gymnasium light fixtures and accessories. City crews begin gym light replacement. Green Local Government Designation: ation: City of Fort Walton Beach submits Green local Government application. Schedule and Hold a Green Building workshop for public and builders. 2 City Building Officials to complete CEU approved course in green building. 41- cz 0 E CL r- 0 C- 4) L a ° w w r S V W Ri s mas m o w 0 o LL w- 0 0 LL >% s y.
