[Added 2-6-2012 by L.L. No. 2-2012]
A.
Every
new or replaced lighting fixture on any parcel in any business district
or on any parcel owned by the Village of Brightwaters, whether attached
to a structure, freestanding, or affixed to a utility pole, shall
be directed downward with a zero-degree horizontal cutoff to the illumination.
No reflectors shall be mounted within 20 feet of the fixture to redirect
the light emanating from the fixture. Replacement of a bulb within
an existing fixture is not a replacement of a fixture and thus not
governed by the above standards.
B.
The above
standards do not apply to:
(1)
Illumination
of any United States flag pursuant to the U.S. Flag Code (4 U.S.C.)
or pursuant to any U.S. presidential order;
(2)
Temporarily
installed decorative lighting no greater than 1,000 cumulative wattage
per parcel between November 15 of any year and January 7 of its immediately
succeeding year; and
(3)
Internal
lighting of translucent signs for which a Village permit is in effect,
but external lighting of opaque signs is not exempt and must comply.
