However, any special requirements concerning lighting for the categories listed below shall take precedence. {ill Lighting specified or identified in a specific use permit. ® Lighting required by federal, state, or county law. ill For residential properties, including multiple residential properties not having common areas, all outdoor lighting must be shielded and shall not exceed 1,260 lumens. (3) Light trespassing onto residential property is prohibited except for lights associated with street, roadway or public safety lighting. (4) External illumination of displays, buildings and architectural features shall be performed with a luminaire or luminaries with a total rating, of all luminaries combined, of not more than 2000 initial lumens. Lighting shall be specifically targeted at particular architectural features and shall not project beyond such features. (C) Measurement Horizontal measurements shall be taken at a height five (5) feet above, or immediately above any barrier, at or near the property line of the affected property and the vertical measurement shall be taken at or near the property line of the affected property, or at a location on the affected property that provides the highest reading. (D) Definitions as used in this section 1. 4. 5. 7. Accent lighting means any directional lighting which emphasizes a particular object or draws attention to a particular area. Foot candle means a measure of luminance or light intensity received on an area of a surface that is a sphere with a one foot radius, or how bright the light is one foot away from the source. The foot-candle is equal to one lumen per square foot. Disabling glare means lighting that impairs visibility and creates a potentially hazardous situation for any person, including pedestrians and motorists. Lamp or Bulb means the light-producing source installed in the socket portion of a luminaire or fixture. Light pollution means general sky glow caused by the scattering of artificial light in the atmosphere and resulting in decreased ability to see the natural night sky. Light trespass means light emitted by a fixture that shines beyond the property on which the fixture is installed. Lumen means a measurement of the total amount of visible light emitted by a source Page 2 of 4 89 90 91 92 93 94 95 96 97 lL. Luminaire or Fixture means a complete lighting unit including the lamps or bulbs, together with the parts required to distribute the light, to position and protect the lamps, and to connect the lamps to the power supply. Nuisance glare means light that creates an annoyance or aggravation but does not create a potentially hazardous situation. Shielding means that no light rays are emitted by a fixture above the horizontal plane running through the lowest point of the fixture where light is emitted. Spotlight or Floodlight means any lamp that incorporates a reflector or a refractor to concentrate the light output into a directed beam in a particular direction. 98 Section 2. Requirements for Residential Landscape Lighting 99 100 1. Shall comply with the above requirements. 101 2. Shall not be aimed onto adjoining properties. 102 103 Section 3.

All outdoor lighting fixtures (luminaires) shall be installed in conformance with this Regulation and with the provisions of the Building Code, the Electrical Code, and the Sign Code, as applicable and under permit and inspection, if such is required. Comment: Practical Considerations: 1. The idea that more light always results in better safety and security is a myth. One needs only the right amount of light, in the right place, at the ri~t time. More· light often means wasted light and energy. 2. Use the lowest wattage oflamp that is feasible. The maximum wattage for most commercial applications should be 250 watts of high intensity discharge lighting should be considered the maximum, but less is usually sufficient. 3. Whenever possible, tum off the lights or use motion sensor controlled lighting. 4. Incorporate curfews (i.e. tum lights off automatically after a certain hour when businesses close or traffic is minimal). This is 'an easy and fast way to initiate dark sky practices. Maximum Lamp Wattage and Required Luminaire or Lamp Shielding: All lighting installations shall be designed and installed to be fully shielded (full . cutoff), except as in exceptions below, and shall have a maximum lamp wattage of250 watts HID (or lumen equivalent) for commercial lighting, 100 watts incandescent, and 26 watts compact fluorescent for residential lighting (or approximately ],600 lumens). In residential areas, light should be shielded such that the lamp itself or the lamp image is not directly visible outside the property perimeter. Lighting that is exempt from these regulations: ]. Lighting in swimming pools and other water features governed by Article 680 of the National Electrical Code. 2. Exit signs and other illumination required by building codes. 3. Lighting for stairs and ramps, as required by the building code. 4. Signs are regulated by the sign code, but all sign lighting is recommended to be fully shielded. 5. Holiday and temporary lighting (less than thirty days lise in anyone year). 3225 North First Avenue • Tucson, AZ 85719 • USA (phone) + 1 (520) 2933918 • (fax) +1 (520) 2933192 ida@darksky.org • www.darksky.6rg . ( International Dark-Sky Association , The Nightscape Authority 6. Football, baseball, and softball field lighting; only with pemlit from the authority recognizing that steps have been taken to minimize glare and light trespass, and utilize sensible curfews. 7. Low voltage landscape lighting, but such lighting should be shielded in such a way as to eliminate glare and light trespass. Additional requirements: , • ',Lighting attached to single-family home structures should not exceed the height of the eave. • Residential pole height restrictions can be considered to control light trespass on a~jacent properties. Notes: 1. The general belief that more light means better safety and security is just a myth. All that is needed is the right amount, in'the right place, at the right time. More light just means wasted light and energy. 2. Use the lowest wattage of lamp as possible .. For cost saving purposes, consider compact fluorescent lamps rather than incandescent, as they u~e much less energy and have a much longer lifetime. 3. Whenever'possible, tum off the lights . Definitions: • Glare: Intense and blinding light. Causes visual discomfort or disability. • Landscape lighting: Luminaries mounted in or at grade (but not more than 3 feet above grade) and used solely for landscape rather than any area lighting. • Obtrusive light: Spil11ight that causes glare, annoyance, discomfort, or IQsS of visual ability. Light Pollution. . • Luminaire (light fixture): A complete lighting unit consisting of one or more electric lamps, the lamp holder, any reflector or lens, ballast (if any), and any other components and accessories. • ;Fully shielded (full cutoff) luminaire: A luminaire emitting no light above the horizontal plane. • Spill light: Light from a lighting installation that falls outside of the boundaries of the property on which it is located. Usually results in obtrusive light. Additional Resources for Establishing Outdoor Lighting Guidelines 1.' Model Lighting Ordinance (MLO) 2. Recommended Outdoor Lighting Zones 3.
