Other: This building has an extremely bright on the west side of the building that not only illuminates their property at night but also shines across Grant street and floods the houses across the street with sharp, glaring light. It is so blindingly bright that it is hazardous to walk down the steps of those houses at night. Can the city require that property owners face lights downward and/or ask them to install some sort of shielding so that the lights are not so offensive to the adjacent neighbors and neighborhood in general? It's bad enough that the building is so generic and tacky, but can the city prevent them from ruining the lives of people in other properties, all the while causing a hazardous situation to exist?
Staff observed some potential non-compliant lighting. A letter will be sent to inquire about this and sort what was pre-existing or not.
Staff will investigate to check lighting reported against lighting standards per code.
Hi Jennifer, This sounds like an issue with lighting. Can you check it out? Thank you, Beth
Beth - Would this be looked at as a Title 20 - Unified Development Ordinance issue?
