Unofficial copy. It may be out of date. Not legal or zoning advice. Zoning rules change, and only the city or county can say for sure what is allowed on a property. Confirm with the city or county planning department before you buy, sign or build.

Tables (like use tables) may not copy cleanly, so check any table against the official code.

Light shielding and direction. Unless specifically exempted in section 108-16-5, all outdoor lighting shall be fully shielded and downward directed in compliance with the following, examples of which are graphically depicted in section 108-16-10:
No artificial light source shall project direct artificial light into the nighttime sky. No artificial light source shall be placed at a location, angle, or height that creates a light trespass, as defined in section 101-2 and graphically depicted in section 108-16-11. The shielding shall be made of completely opaque material such that light escapes only through the bottom. Shielding that is translucent, transparent, has perforations or slits of any kind, or allows light to escape through it in any other manner is not permitted. Shielding may be attained by light fixture design, building design, or other site design features such as fencing, walls, landscaping, or other screening, provided it is in strict compliance with subsections (a)(1) through (3) of this section. To ensure light does not trespass on neighboring property, light fixtures that comply with the shielding provisions of this section may also require additional or extended shielding elements to further mitigate its angle of light travel to ensure the direct artificial light source does not trespass on neighboring property. This concept is graphically depicted in section 108-16-11. Light color. Unless otherwise specified in this chapter, the color of any outdoor artificial light source shall be equal to or less than 3000K, in accordance with the standard Kelvin temperature chart, as graphically depicted in section 108-16-12.
