As discussed, I have contacted the property owner; Mr. Gal to schedule a meeting and based on that discussion, we agree to meet on-site Friday evening, November 1, 2013 to run some lighting test(s). Once the test(s) are complete, I will forward you a copy of the results. In addition, I will make suggestions to Mr. Gal if I find some lighting concerns.

The floodlights on the right facing the building shine directly into my condo and light up my living room, guest bedroom and study. They are extremely bright! I’m requesting that someone from the city determine if the lights comply with pertinent city ordinances regarding lighting, in particular, the Spillover Lighting Standards. Moreover, the lights appear to be placed in such a manner as to illuminate the entire façade of the building – not to concentrate the illumination upon the area of a wall sign or signs, as required by the signage ordinance. Sec. 34-209. Spillover lighting standards established. Area floodlighting fixtures or other materials installed or provided within the corporate limits of the city, unless excepted elsewhere, shall be installed in or equipped so that the light source does not transmit excessive spillover beyond the boundaries of the property on which the lighting source is located. Sec. 94-63. Lighting. Gooseneck reflectors, spotlights, floodlights and other lights shall be permitted on ground signs and wall signs. However, the reflectors shall be provided with proper lenses concentrating the illumination upon the area of the sign so as to prevent the glare upon the street or adjacent property. I’ve attached some photos of the lights made from my living room and study to illustrate the problem. I also invite whomever is responsible for such code enforcement to personally come to my condo and observe the lights at night. Thanks very much for your attention to my concerns.
