which can be seen from the beach.
These lights are in violation of the City of Cape Canaveral Code of Ordinances and may cause

3. Description of Violation(s) at property: Sec. 14 -56. Existing development.
Sec. 14 -55. New development.
(a) It is the policy of the city to minimize artificial light illuminating within the jurisdictional
boundaries of this article to reduce artificial light on the beaches. To meet this intent, building
and electrical plans associated with parking lots, dune walkovers or other outdoor lighting for
development of real property within the jurisdictional boundaries shall be in compliance with the
following:
(1) Except as set forth in subsection (a) (2) of this section, no more than 0.5 foot - candles of
artificial illumination shall be cast upon the beach. Appropriate techniques for reducing artificial
illumination include but are not limited to fitting lights with hoods or shields, screening artificial
light with vegetation or other devices, directing light away from beach area, utilizing low - profile
lighting and lowering the light intensity of the lamps.
(2) No more than two foot - candles of artificial illumination shall be cast upon the beach when
the spectral distribution of the light bandwidths is between 560 and 620 nanometers.
Commercially available lighting that satisfies the spectral criteria includes low- pressure sodium
lamps.
(3) No lamp shall be directly visible from the beach. The use of opaque materials for screening
and hooding the lamps are techniques which may be used to limit visibility from the beach.
(4) Parking lots where vehicle headlights may cast light onto the beach so as to be in violation
of this article shall be screened to eliminate excess light on the beach.
Sec. 14 -56. Existing development.
It is the policy of the city to minimize artificial light illuminating within the jurisdictional
boundaries of this article to reduce artificial light on the beaches. To meet this intent, lighting of
all structures which illuminate the beach shall be in compliance with the following:
