SUBJECT
First Reading of Ordinance No. 059, 2021, Further Amending the Land Use Code Regarding Exterior Lighting.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This item has been amended to correct errors on the map designated as Exhibit A to the Ordinance.
The purpose of this item is to adopt the Lighting Context Area Map that is part of the Exterior Lighting Code
unanimously adopted by Council by Ordinance No. 040, 2021, on March 16, 2021, and to insert effective dates
in two places in the Exterior Lighting Code. The map is an integral component of the Exterior Lighting Code but
was inadvertently excluded in Council materials during its adoption.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinance on First Reading.
BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION
Council adopted the revised Exterior Lighting Code on second reading on March 16, 2021, by Ordinance No.
040, 2021. The Exterior Lighting Code incorporates by reference the Lighting Context Area Map but such map
was inadvertently not attached to Ordinance No. 040, 2021. It is being presented to Council for adoption and is
necessary to allow application of the revised Exterior Lighting Code. The effective date of the map is specified
in the Ordinance as March 26, 2021, to match the effective date of the previously adopted Exterior Lighting
Code.
The adopted Exterior Lighting Code contains two placeholders for insertion of the effective date of Ordinance
No. 040, 2021, Sections 3.2.4(B) and (D), and this Ordinance will replace the placeholders with the March 26,
2021, effective date. The effective date will determine which development applications are subject to the revised
Exterior Lighting Code.
