Commission requests draft dark-sky ordinance language for council review
Summary
Staff reported the city council asked for draft language that incorporates dark-sky standards; the commission asked staff to circulate a draft ordinance that would show how dark-sky measures might be incorporated, but made no decision tonight.
Staff updated the commission on a directive from city council: staff was asked to prepare draft ordinance language that would incorporate dark-sky lighting standards and provide the commission and council with options. The planner said efforts to contact other cities for implementation experience have not yet yielded responses but a revised draft that includes dark-sky language should be available for review next month.
Commissioners discussed whether to ask for the draft for review; staff offered to distribute the draft ordinance incorporating dark-sky language once it is prepared. No adoption or formal action was taken tonight; the item remains for future review and potential ordinance drafting work by staff and council.
