§ 8.15.6. Residential lighting design guidelines for individual lots.

The following guidelines are intended to encourage the wise use of exterior lighting and to provide enough light for a safe and comfortable nighttime environment in a way that does not adversely affect the adjacent properties or neighborhood. These guidelines should be incorporated into development applications to the extent practicable.

A.

Outdoor fixtures should be designed, shielded, aimed, located and maintained to prevent glare and light trespass on abutting properties and the vicinity.

B.

The style of light standards and fixtures should be consistent with the style and character of architecture proposed on the site.

C.

The use of exterior lighting should be minimized in areas of important wildlife habitat. Lighting should be designed so it does not spill over onto such habitat.

D.

All outdoor lighting, except low-output (2000 lumens or less) lighting, should be equipped with an on-off switch.
