A. For exterior lighting installations and fixtures within 50 feet of Residential zones, the following requirements shall apply:

1. The height of lighting fixtures shall be as provided in RZC 21.34.120, Mounting and Illumination Standards Table, of this chapter.

2. Lighting fixtures shall be aimed and shielded in a manner that shall not direct illumination or allow light trespass on adjacent residential zones. Adjacent residential zones include those that are located to the front, rear, side, and diagonal to the nonresidential use or exterior lighting installation or fixture. Fixtures should be of a type, or adequately shielded, so as to prevent glare from normal viewing angles.

3. Additional landscaping may be required by the Technical Committee to provide light screening between commercial zones and residential zones where the same would diminish or prevent light trespass. Where landscaping is used for light screening, the Technical Committee shall take into consideration the applicable landscaping standards found elsewhere in these regulations, the design standards found elsewhere in these regulations, the creation of excessive shadows or dark spaces, and views into and out of a site. (Ord. 2614)
