Street Lighting Safety Petition

Make Your Neighbourhood Safer with Better Street Lighting

Poorly lit streets aren't just inconvenient—they're a safety risk. Whether you're dealing with dark footpaths, unlit car parks, or residential areas that feel unsafe after sunset, this Street Lighting Safety Petition Template helps you rally community support and get your local council or public works department to take action.

Built for community advocates and neighbourhood groups

This template is designed for residents, community associations, neighbourhood watch groups, and local advocates who want to petition for improved street lighting. It collects the essential information councils need—mapped dark zones, crime statistics, photos, and community signatures—all in one professional submission.

The form captures each signatory's details, asks them to identify specific problem areas on a map, and allows them to upload supporting evidence like photos of dark streets or crime reports. You can route completed petitions directly to your public works department, council representative, or safety committee, keeping everything organised and actionable.

Why Paperform for petitions and community campaigns

Paperform makes it easy to create on-brand petitions that look professional and convert well when shared on social media, community noticeboards, or via email. The doc-style editor lets you add context, images of unsafe areas, and explanatory text to help people understand the issue before they sign.

With conditional logic, you can show different follow-up questions based on responses—such as asking signatories if they've witnessed incidents in certain areas, or if they'd like to be contacted for future advocacy efforts. And because Paperform forms work beautifully on mobile, residents can sign your petition on-the-go, right from their phones while standing in the very spot that needs better lighting.

Once your petition gains traction, use Stepper (stepper.io) to automate what happens next. Route completed petitions to the right department contact, send thank-you emails to signatories, log signatures in a Google Sheet or Airtable base, and trigger reminder campaigns to gather even more support. You can even set up automatic milestone notifications—like alerting your steering committee when you hit 50, 100, or 500 signatures.
