(Ord. of 5-30-2025, § 4.1)

(a)

New residential dwellings, except for mixed-use structures, shall be designed in one of the styles below. Architectural drawings shall include the specific elements of the required styles as outlined in the a "Field Guide to American Houses" by Virginia Savage McAlester.

(1)

FEDERAL (1800—1830) Many early structures were designed in the Federal style which was popular in the first part of the 19th century. The majority of Federal houses have two stories with gable roofs and is constructed of brick. Their façades always contain symmetrically placed openings. Windows have small panes and are often capped with a flat brick arch. The doorway may be contained in an arched opening and usually has a small classical portico with columns surrounding it. The cornice is also classically inspired and may contain modillion or dentil blocks.

(2)

GREEK REVIVAL (1830—1860) The Greek Revival style differs from Federal architecture in several ways: The roof is usually hipped instead of gable; the openings are wider and often have sidelights; and the lintels above the windows frequently have raised corner blocks. Porch supports are classic columns, round or fluted in design. Like the Federal style, the openings are always symmetrical and the entrance is usually centered within the façade.

(3)

ITALIANATE (1850—1880) The Italianate style also dates from the romantic Victorian era, and it can be identified by the large brackets under widely overhanging eaves and a shallow pitched roof. The windows are often arched or segmental in their design and may be capped with decorative hood molds. The structure usually consists of well-defined sections that are asymmetrically grouped, sometimes with a tower on the more elaborate examples.

(4)

QUEEN ANNE (1880—1910) The Queen Anne style was very popular during the Victorian era. It has many variations but is usually associated with a complex, irregularly shaped steep roof and a variety of surface materials such as shingles, wood siding, brick, and stone. Towers and turrets are often present as well as bay windows and large one-story front and side porches.

(5)

COLONIAL REVIVAL (1900—1930) The Colonial Revival style is based on the earlier Georgian, Federal, and Greek Revival periods. It has a rectangular plan and a symmetrical façade. The roof may be a gable or more often a hipped design. The details are always classical and porticoes over entrances are common. Like earlier periods, the windows have small panes, but their proportions are often more horizontal; and the first floor may contain paired or triple windows. Doorways can have various elements including sidelights, fanlights, pediments, and columns or pilasters.

(6)

FOLK VICTORIAN (1870—1920) This style of residential dwellings is also known as the Frame Vernacular style. Three variations of this style are: The "L" gable which reflects the shape of the floor plan and of the roof; the two-story gable roof form; and the pyramidal cottage with its hipped roof.

(b)

In addition to the specific architectural elements required by the "Field Guide to American Houses," residential dwellings shall meet the materials requirements below:

(1)

No more than three different exterior materials, exterior colors, or any combination thereof may be used on a single building, not including windows, doors, porches, balconies, foundations, and architectural details.

(2)

Materials may be combined on exterior walls only horizontally, with the heavier below the lighter.

(Ord. of 5-30-2025, § 5.1)

The night sky has been a resource and part of the quality of life of Barrow County since the area was first settled. Over the years, however, the night sky has slowly diminished due to unnecessary light and glare for inappropriate lighting. This ordinance provides standards to prevent obtrusive and wasteful light pollution. Examples of light pollution include skyglow, light trespass and glare.

(Ord. of 5-30-2025, § 6.1)

(a)

Glare: Overly bright and poorly aimed lights cause glare, which is the most safety-related aspect of light pollution. Many people assume that a bright light attached to an outside wall may deter criminal or unwanted activity. However, the brighter the lights the more difficult it is for the eye to adjust properly thus limiting the ability to detect possible intruders as quickly. Bright but unevenly distributed lighting often creates deep shadows which may hide unwanted activity. Shielded, evenly distributed lighting reduces glare, harsh brightness, and deep shadows. Reducing glare can provide a safer public environment.

(b)

Light trespass: Light trespass is light that is distributed onto areas where illumination is not wanted. Light intruding into neighboring homes and properties can keep people awake at night and destroy the sense of privacy. Effective, quality lighting includes amounts in the appropriate place and appropriate times of day.

(c)

Skyglow: Skyglow is the wasted light shining skyward and reflecting out into the atmosphere. It decreases the ability to see stars and other astronomical events. Full cut-off shields applied over light sources can direct light to where it is needed and reduces wasted up lights.

(d)

Wildlife disorientation: Lights attract and disorient animals. It can upset their biological patterns, affect their breeding cycles, and deter them from established foraging areas. Trees are also affected as artificial light may deter them from adjusting to seasonal variations. Light should only be directed where needed.

(Ord. of 5-30-2025, § 6.2)

(a)

To prevent the lighting problem pollutions described in section 89-1526 above, outdoor lighting in the D211 District shall be subject to this section. Any outdoor lighting used for the illumination of parking areas, landscaping, residences, buildings, recreational areas, or for any public or private purpose shall be arranged in a manner to meet the following conditions:

(1)

Lighting shall be fully shieled using full cut off fixtures and downlit. This shield must be opaque so that no light can pass through it.

(2)

Neither the direct nor reflected light from any light source may create a traffic hazard to operators of motor vehicles on public roads and no colored lights may be used in a way that could be confused or construed as traffic control devices.

(3)

No blinking, flashing, or fluttering lights or other illuminated device which has a change in light intensity, brightness, or color, and no lighting which exceeds 12 feet in height is permitted in any zoning district except for streetlights owned and maintained by Barrow County or temporary holiday displays, or as required by federal, state, or local regulations.

(4)

Please note that special use permits may condition properties to more restrictive requirements for outdoor lighting.

(5)

Outdoor lighting shall be limited to CFL or LED lighting sources.

(6)

Security lighting shall be directed towards the targeted area and shall not be placed at a distance greater than 20 feet above grade.

(Ord. of 5-30-2025, § 6.3)

(a)

Outdoor lighting plans shall be required upon application for a land disturbance permit, submittal of new development plans, or applies for a permit for construction or expansion of a building (collectively referred to as the "redevelopment activity"). The term "redevelopment activity" excludes permits for remodeling, for the construction of accessory buildings, and for expansion of a building, if such activity is for purposes consistent with the current use of the parcel.

(b)

Applicants for any permit for any non-single-family use proposing outdoor lighting shall submit evidence that the proposed work will comply with the outdoor lighting regulations of this section in accordance with the following:

(1)

Plans indicating the location on the premises of each outdoor illuminating device, both proposed and any already existing on the site.

(2)

Description of all proposed illuminating devices, fixtures, lamps, supports, reflectors. The description shall include, but is not limited to, catalog cuts, and illustrations by manufacturers.

(3)

Photometric data, such as that furnished by manufacturers or similar, showing the angle of cutoff of light emissions.

(4)

Photometric plans shall include the maximum and average light layout.

(5)

The submission shall show that the property does not exceed an illumination level of 0.5 footcandles where property lines abut a residential use or 1.5 footcandles where abutting any other use.

(6)

The submission shall also show that off-street parking lots comply with the following illumination requirements:

(Ord. of 5-30-2025, § 6.4)
