This passed the Board of Supervisors on 12/7.  I don't know if they made changes to it.  Good!

I thought I saw a post on here about county ordinances to help keep desert and mountain communities sky clear from light pollution? I looked but couldn't find the thread.

My new neighbors who are weekenders have their Christmas lights up still on a timer every night. They turn dark about midnight but it is just too much light. Any advice?

It does seem that things are getting a lot brighter.

There is a house on Edna west of Cedar (I think) that is bright enough that I avoid that block of Edna.

It looks like just turning the fixture a little would help a lot.
