Site and building lighting shall be designed and operated to minimize the off-premises impact of the building interior lighting and exterior lighting on the property and surrounding areas. Applicant shall utilize LEED guidance and shall employ best efforts to minimize light pollution from the interior and exterior lighting constructed as part of this project and its effects on people, wildlife and the surrounding ecosystem provided same does not interfere with life and safety issues and meets building code requirements. Strategies to achieve this outcome include, but are not limited to:

Exterior and interior lighting design plans shall, at a minimum, comply with the requirements of U.S. Green Building Council's LEED v3 Light Pollution Reduction credit and those portions of the LEED v3 Optimize Energy Performance prerequisite that govern interior lighting.

All outdoor lighting, including streetlamps and accent lighting, should comply with "dark sky" standards intended to reduce light pollution. Dark sky standards require that lighting is downcast, illuminates only the intended areas, dims during nighttime condition, and does not cause disabling glare that affects driver safety and reduces the visibility of starry night skies.
