Henderson's development code addresses light trespass by requiring exterior lighting to be directed away from adjacent properties. Commercial and industrial properties must not exceed maximum illumination levels at property boundaries. Residential complaints about light trespass are handled through code enforcement.
The development code specifies maximum footcandle levels at property lines to prevent light trespass. Commercial parking lot lighting must be shielded and directed downward. Residential properties may file nuisance complaints about excessive lighting from neighboring commercial or residential properties. HOAs may also address light trespass through their CC&Rs.
Light trespass exceeding code standards may result in required modification of lighting fixtures, fines, and ongoing code enforcement action.
