						 Good Outdoor Lighting
						 
						      
						            Shine light down to where its needed, not up or sideways. 
						                 Dont overlightuse lighting levels that are appropriate 
						                for the situation. 
						                 Turn off lights when theyre not needed or use motion sensors. 
						                 Reduce the number of parking lot lights that are illuminated 
						                after hours. 
						                 Use energy-efficient lights and fixtures (a 25-watt focused light 
						                can often do the same job as a 100-watt unfocused light). 
						                To read the entire lighting code, Eugene Code Section 9.6725, go to www.ci.eugene.or.us.
