Outdoor Lighting 

The city addresses outdoor lighting in its zoning ordinance (§VI-8). The ordinance’s purpose is to control lighting to protect against light trespass and nuisance, promote efficiency, and provide safety and security.

It offers definitions and applies to all outdoor lighting, though single-family and duplex uses do not need to submit lighting plans. General requirements limit glare and addresses façade/landscape lighting. Additional requirements address lighting plan submission requirements, fixture types, lighting context, light levels, fixture mounting, and timing of lighting.
