2. Response to Petition - Request for Solar Lighting at the Playground within Cameron Park
This is a report concerning a petition received from Mrs Josephine Hutt on behalf of residents of Division 3 requesting solar lighting for the new playground at Cameron Park.
Recommendation

· Council currently does not have any other playgrounds lit across the public park network
· There is concern that light spill to nearby residents could be prevalent
· Anti-social behaviour and unwanted attention could be exacerbated
*** · To maintain consistency across the public parks network, lighting of playgrounds does not form part of the Desired Standard of Service for new parks.
B. That the chief petitioner be advised of the outcome of this report.
