Dear Residents Groups and Associations,

Click to read the flyer

City of London would like to invite residents to submit comments on the City’s first Lighting Strategy.

The strategy, developed with Lighting Designer Speirs and Major, seeks to deliver a holistic, creative, and smart approach in which light and darkness are better balanced to meet both the functional and aesthetic needs of the Square Mile. The objective is to provide the City with the necessary functional lighting it requires and to improve the quality of life for its residents and workers, by avoiding unnecessary light pollution, over-lighting, excessive glare and inconsistencies in lighting design.

The public consultation for the City Lighting Strategy will be running for 6 weeks from the Monday 22nd of January to Friday 2nd March 2018.

The strategy will be available to download from the City website, where an on-line survey can also be completed.

Postcards to submit comments can also be found in Guildhall receptions and we can provide more copies at Resident Estate receptions upon request.

Officers will be available to answer any questions in a series of drop in sessions in various locations around the City. Evening sessions will be followed by night walking tours, led by City of London officers, which explore current challenges and opportunities of the City of London lighting. Please see A4 poster attached with details on the locations and timings.

For more information on the strategy or to provide any comments, please visit www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/citylightingstrategy or email citylightingstrategy@cityoflondon.gov.uk.
