Help us make Midtown Lighter, Brighter and Safer!
Be part of the Midtown Community Benefits District’s initiative to create a safer, more attractive neighborhood by keeping on front entry lights.
Lighting In Front:
- Light your vestibule from dusk to dawn: Installing a new low-energy bulb saves on your electric bill and makes this step easy.
- Have an outside light at your front door? Be sure it is on at night. Add and activate a timer or low-cost “dusk to dawn” electric-eye switch to turn the light on and off automatically.
- No front entry outside light? $100 grant for installing a new outdoor fixture. Several models that are architecturally appropriate for our neighborhoods are available. Solar powered fixtures are available which require no wiring and no penetration of your masonry. Earn a $100 grant from Midtown if you install and keep your light on at night. Apply quickly, funding is limited!
Lighting Out Back:
Motion detector rear-of-house lighting is available at local hardware and building supply stores. Baltimore City Police suggest motion detector lighting is helpful to them while discouraging criminals from entering your property. Two options are available:
- Wired to your household electric service
- Solar powered, no direct wiring required
Add lighting at the rear of your property facing an alley and earn a $50 grant from Midtown.
Rear House Numbers:
Baltimore City’s emergency services providers have recommended clearly displaying your house number in the rear of your property facing your alley. The Midtown Community Benefits District will supply a reflective number panel for your rear gate, fence or garage door at no charge if you participate in any part of our WE WANT YOU LIT initiative.
