Outdoor lighting

  • Outdoor lighting must ensure good visibility of the premises and help generate a feeling of safety. It must also be designed to minimize the impacts on adjacent properties and public thoroughfares, through such means as limiting the height of streetlamps, directing light to the ground and using equipment that limits lateral diffusion of light.

Green and planting areas

  • The area reserved for parking must include the following :
    • A band of greenery planted at the edge of a public thoroughfare;
    • A band of greenery situated along the property line when the property borders a residential zone.
  • When the surface area of the parking lot is greater than 1,000 m2, islands of ornamental greenery must be installed in sufficient size and number to create an attractive, comfortable and safe environment that helps structure the lot and make it legible to users.
