Lighting within shorelines and lands adjacent to shorelines if not properly managed can have an adverse impact on the ecological function, most notably the migration patterns of salmonids and terrestrial species.
A. Policies.
1. Lighting should be minimized within shorelines, especially within close proximity to the water.
B. Regulations.
1. Development proposals within shorelines shall include a master lighting plan (MLP) that complies with the following standards:
a. Location of all outdoor lighting and building security lighting and associated wattages;
b. Pole heights that shall not exceed 20 feet in height;
c. Fixture designs for all outdoor lighting shall shield the source or bulb of the light; and
d. Photometric plan shall not exceed a strength of one foot-candle at the property lines.
2. Where lighting is required for new streets, driveways or public access features, the lowest level lighting possible shall be used and shall be compliant with safety and Crime Prevention through Environmental Design (CPTED) standards.
3. Said lighting plan shall be reviewed and approved by the planning and community development department as a component of the shoreline permit application. [Ord. 2013-02-005 § 2 (Exh. 1)].
