City consicv00rs new rules for lights
By Sean C. Morgan
Of The New Era
The Sweet Home Planning
Commission is developing a new
ordinance to control lighting in
residential areas.
"The issue came up in the
community when some people
were concerned about their
neighbors' lights coming onto
their property," said Laura West-
meyer, planning assistant.
The proposal will be almost
entirely new, although the city
does have regulations governing
lighting in commercial and in-
dustrial zones for new develop-
ments.
Right now, the city has no
ordinances preventing residents
from shining lights onto their
neighbors, Westmeyer said.
Residents are complaining about
intense lights shining on their
homes at late hours.
The Planning Commission
has met twice to begin develop-
ing a proposed ordinance, and it
will meet again on June 4 to con-
Pinot

tinue.
The first meeting was used
to get up to speed on how other
jurisdictions handle lighting in
residential areas, Westmeyer
said. At the second meeting, the
commission looked at a prelimi-
nary draft.
"We looked at definitions,
which can be tricky," Westmeyer
said. The commissioners have
looked at everything from cutoffs
to the angle of light and the plane
of the fixture.
They've also looked at how
to measure the light, she said.
Watts don't work because light
intensity is different with differ-
ent types of light sources.
Rather, the city will use "lu-
mens" and will add a reference to"
help residents relate them to vari-
ous types of lighting.
The commission also looked
at exceptions to the rules, West-
meyer said. Some residents have
U.S. flags, which etiquette re-
quires to be lighted at night.
Others use lights for safety
purposes. Churches, schools,
events and athletic fields will
probably be excepted from the
ordinance.
The ordinance also will not
address street lights, Westmeyer
said.
Westmeyer expects to have a
draft ready this week for Planning
Commission review this coming
Monday, June 4. The meeting
starts at 7:30 p.m. in the City Halt
Annex in the council chamber.
After that, the Planning
Commission will return to the
proposed ordinance in August,
said Community Development
Director Carol Lewis.
She expects that the ordi-
nance may be in front of the City
Council for final approval possi-
bly by the end of the year, Lewis
said. The Planning Commission
will need to hold a public hear-
ing. Then the ordinance will
move to the council for a public
hearing, and after three readings
of the ordinance, the council can
adopt the ordinance.
