Council considers outdoor lighting rules to quantify light for enforcement
Summary
Council reviewed amendments aimed at addressing over-illumination and directional light pollution by allowing quantification of light levels for enforcement; legal review requested before further action.
Council reviewed a proposed modification to the outdoor lighting ordinance in response to resident complaints about over-illumination and directional light pollution. The draft would permit quantifying light output as an enforcement metric rather than rely solely on descriptive standards.
Members asked that Acting City Attorney Tommy Ramsey review the proposed changes before the council proceeds. No public hearing or vote was recorded at the Oct. 7 meeting; the item will return for legal review and potential additional drafting.
