All outdoor site lighting shall conform to the following standards.
(A) A lighting plan shall be provided for review at or before the preliminary phase of a project approval process (site plan review or building permit approval). The lighting plan shall demonstrate a consideration for reduced energy consumption through the selection of energy efficient fixtures.
(B) Unless otherwise specified in the following divisions, the maximum light level shall be one-half maintained footcandles at any property line in a residential district, or on a lot occupied by a dwelling, congregate care, or congregate living structure. Floodlights shall not be aimed at residential property.
(C) All floodlights shall be installed such that the fixture shall be aimed down at least 45 degrees from vertical. These lights shall be positioned such that any such fixture located within 50 feet of a public street right-of-way is mounted and aimed perpendicular to the right-of-way, with a side-to-side horizontal aiming tolerance not to exceed 15 degrees from perpendicular to the right-of-way. The town’s Planning Director may require shields to be installed on floodlights before, during, or after the installation when needed to further reduce lighting trespass, glare, and light pollution.
(D) All flood lamps emitting 1,000 or more lumens shall be aimed at least 60 degrees down from horizontal or shielded such that the main beam from the light source is not visible from adjacent properties or the public street right-of-way.
(E) All wall pack fixtures shall be full cutoff fixtures.
(F) Where land elevations to be lighted are higher or lower than a nearby highway, residential dwelling, or other type of facility and the lighting installation causes offensive light trespass and/or glare, the town Planning Director may require internal or external shields to be installed on the fixtures at the time of the installation or afterwards. If shields do not correct the problem sufficiently, the Planning Department may direct that one or more of the following measures must be implemented:
(1) Change the aiming of offending fixtures;
(2) Change the location and/or mounting height or the offending poles;
(3) Change the light distribution pattern and/or type of offending fixtures; and/or
(4) Remove the offending poles and fixtures from the site.
