Mililani Town addresses light trespass through LUO shielding requirements and HOA architectural rules rather than a specific foot-candle property-line ordinance.
LUO Sec. 21-4.100 remains Mililani Town's primary light trespass tool by requiring full cut-off fixtures that eliminate direct illumination onto neighboring residential and other sensitive districts. Honolulu has not adopted a separate chapter with foot-candle thresholds at property lines. HOA architectural review committees in Mililani Town Association and Mililani Mauka Association typically impose their own standards for exterior lighting color temperature, aiming, and hours. Public nuisance remedies under ROH 41 provide a backstop where lighting substantially interferes with a neighbor's use of their home.
DPP enforcement, HOA architectural committee actions, and private nuisance litigation in egregious cases.
