Description

Please remove all lighting from Inman Square that don't follow the city lighting ordinances. From the city's website "A light fixture must be fully shielded and can be mounted up to 12’ above the surface to be illuminated. Examples of this site condition are light fixtures next to doorways, paths, outdoor stairs or open spaces that need a focused, brighter light. The maximum lumen limit for new and replacement light fixtures and light bulbs is 1,050 lumens." Th strings of lights in Inman Square are not shielded in anyway and emit a lot of light pollution some of which directly enters my apartment. These lights also are possibly hung above 12 feet and above 1050 lumens.
