(A) Street lights shall be located so that the bulk of their illumination will travel away from the beach. Such lights shall produce only long wavelength light (560 nm or greater, which is amber, orange, or red) or be equipped with shades or shields that will, to the extent practical, prevent backlighting and render such lights not visible from the beach. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Town Council, upon the recommendation of the Chief of Police, may authorize an exception where public safety requires.
(B) Lights at parks and beach access points shall be properly positioned or shielded or, to the extent same are determined by the town not to be necessary for public safety purposes, shall not be utilized during the period from March 1 to October 31 of each year.
