Outdoor lighting in the Village of Indiantown is regulated under the adopted Martin County Ch. 33 zoning standards and LDR Ch. 4. Fixtures must be shielded, directed downward, and limited to prevent light trespass onto neighboring properties.
Martin County zoning standards adopted by Indiantown require all outdoor lighting in new development and substantial redevelopment to use full-cutoff shielded fixtures directed downward to the ground or pavement, minimize light spill onto adjacent properties, and limit glare onto streets. Parking lot light levels are capped (typical max 5 footcandles in interior; 0.5 footcandle at the property line). Sea turtle lighting standards do not apply because Indiantown is inland (no nesting beaches). Light trespass complaints from neighbors are enforced through Code Compliance under nuisance and zoning provisions.
Code Compliance issues notices for non-compliant lighting; continuing violations are heard by Special Magistrate with daily civil fines under Fla. Stat. 162.09 (up to $250/$500).
