Home My WebLink AboutRE 8801 Astronaut Ave Spill-over lighting test (8)Mr. Bedwell, I have not yet discussed the possibility of using that section yet with our city attorney but will try to have that discussion with her this week. A legal opinion will be up to the city attorney but I never mentioned or promised that one would be forthcoming.

I was expecting a legal opinion regarding the ordinance. Is one forthcoming? Thanks, Bill Bedwell From: Gary Stepalavich [mailto:G.Stepalavich@cityofcapecanaveral.org] Sent: Thursday, May 01, 2014 1:56 PM To: Bill Bedwell Cc: Todd Morley; Brian Palmer Subject: RE: 8801 Astronaut Ave Spill-over lighting test Mr. Bedwell, Please see the attached letter of non-violation as it relates to your spillover lighting complaint. We tested it according to the City ordinance requirements and at the stated location of your complaint. From performing our site visit and reviewing your photos it appears to be glare/direct glare from the building illumination lights. Unfortunately our ordinance does not address the issue of glare or direct glare at this time as that seems to be the problem. As to using Section 94-63, I interpret that section to relate to sign lights only and not building illumination lights. Hopefully we can make changes in our ordinance to adopt a section for glare. Please feel free to contact me if you would like any additional information. Sincerely, Gary Stepalavich, MCP Building Official / Code Enforcement Director City of Cape Canaveral 7510 N.

I’m confident about the City’s ability to conduct the test now that the equipment is properly calibrated, and will probably not attend. Moreover, as previously noted, I believe that Sec. 94-63 of the city ordinances more directly addresses our lighting issue, so our concerns will likely not be resolved by this test. To aid in determining compliance (or lack thereof) with that section, I invite you and anyone else involved in the lighting issue, including any Beachwave representative, to visit my condo after you complete the test so you can observe firsthand how the floodlights are actually affecting us. Just give me a heads up at (321) 783-3909. Our address is 8924 Puerto Del Rio Drive, Unit 504; it’s the second building on the left after you enter the complex. Our call box code is 010.
