EAG's Goal: to promote safety directly on the Excelsior commercial corridor, educate merchants about Crime Prevention through Environmental Design concepts, increase the perception of safety on the corridor among those who live, work, and shop after dark and enhance the environmental sustainability of businesses on the corridor through the provision of energy efficient lighting
about the program
The Shine a Bright Light on Excelsior (SBLE) program was a grassroots safety initiative of EAG, sponsored by PG&E, that was first proposed by Excelsior community members during an EAG hosted meeting in February 2012. The program had several goals designed around lighting and safety. These goals were to promote safety directly on the Excelsior commercial corridor, educate merchants about crime prevention through environmental design concepts, increase the perception of safety on the corridor among those who live, work, and shop after dark and enhance the environmental sustainability of businesses on the corridor through the provision of energy efficient lighting. The very successful program involved the distribution of energy efficient light bulbs and educational posters for display in every small business on the Excelsior’s Commercial Corridor followed by outreach conducted by trained Safety Liaisons volunteers.
