ABOUT <br />The City of South Bend’s Lamppost Lighting Program <br />assists homeowners with lighting enhancements in <br />their neighborhoods. <br />The cost-share program offers easy self-install, solar- <br />powered lampposts for residential front yards. The <br />solar lampposts must be mounted in a level area within <br />approximately five feet of the edge of sidewalk. <br />There is a limit of one lamppost per household. The <br />homeowner is responsible for pickup, installation and <br />any maintenance of the lamppost after installation. <br />The program is being offered to South Bend homeowners <br />within the city limits. For 2025, the City has selected two <br />target areas based on income, number of vacant lots and <br />need for lighting in the neighborhood. <br />Homeowners who live within these target areas will pay a <br />lower share of the total cost of the lamppost: <br />• Within target areas, homeowners pay 10% of total <br />lamppost cost: $50. <br />• Outside target areas, homeowners pay 50% of total <br />lamppost cost: $250. <br />Payment is due at time of application. Cash, check/ <br />money order or credit card will be accepted. <br />PROCESS (KEEP THIS PAGE) APPLICATION <br />FILL OUT THE APPLICATION BY JUNE 6. <br />DROP OFF OR MAIL WITH PAYMENT TO: <br />City of South Bend–Division of Engineering <br />227 W.

DISTRIBUTION <br />Homeowners can pick up their lamppost at the Public <br />Works Service Center, located at 731 S. Lafayette Blvd. on: <br /> • Thursday, June 26 from 4 – 6 p.m., or <br /> • Saturday, June 28 from 10 a.m. to noon <br />4. INSTALLATION <br />Homeowners will need to verify that the location they pick <br />to install the lamppost does not interfere with utilities. <br />Homeowners must call 811 to have utilities located on the <br />property. The lamppost should be placed in direct sunlight <br />and away from trees for best results. The lamppost must be <br />placed on the homeowner’s property, not in the tree lawn, <br />and within five feet of the front sidewalk. <br />Installation must be completed by the homeowner <br />within two weeks of distribution. Engineering will <br />inspect lampposts after the two weeks to ensure proper <br />installation.
