Background / Discussion 
 
The City maintains approximately 45,968 streetlights, of which 4,961 are painted. Most 
poles are made from galvanized steel or aluminum, which are designed to remain 
unpainted. Whether a pole is painted depends on its material, age, and intended use. 
Painted poles are typically decorative streetlights or 400 series square brown poles and are 
generally repainted every seven to eight years. 
 
This contract covers streetlight painting services, including the preparation, painting, and 
restoration of existing streetlight poles, luminaires, arms, cabinets, and related accessories. 
Work will be performed at designated locations, with additional services provided on an as 
needed, where needed basis. The City does not supply materials or labor for these 
services.
