City of Spokane offers free motion-detecting outdoor lights to residents

The City of Spokane is offering residents free motion-detecting outdoor lights to improve nighttime visibility and deter unwanted activity, an agency official for the city said.

City officials said the program is intended to help residents “help make your neighborhood safer.” The announcement directed residents to request a voucher through their City of Spokane online account or to learn more at my.spokanecity.org/residentiallight.

The brief notice did not specify eligibility criteria, the number of lights available, or the source of program funding. Those details were not specified in the announcement.

Residents seeking the vouchers were instructed to use their City of Spokane account or visit my.spokanecity.org/residentiallight for more information and any application steps.
