Florissant council adopts outdoor lighting regulations into zoning code
Summary
Council passed an ordinance adding outdoor lighting regulations to the zoning code (Chapter 405, Article 6) to establish standards for exterior lighting in the city.
At its Sept. 22 meeting, the Florissant City Council approved an ordinance adding a new section to the zoning code (Chapter 405, Article 6) to establish outdoor lighting regulations.
The ordinance was introduced as Bill 10113. Councilman Caputo moved for a third reading and, after council members voted in favor, the bill passed and the ordinance was adopted.
The transcript records the change as a supplementary district regulation establishing outdoor lighting standards; the text of the ordinance was read on the floor and members were given the opportunity to ask for public comment before the final vote. No public speakers registered comments on this item during the meeting.
Why it matters: Outdoor lighting regulations can affect residential and commercial property owners, help limit light pollution, and guide new development and municipal projects.
Next steps: The ordinance passed; city staff will apply the new rules in permitting and enforcement under the zoning code.
