Clark County addresses light trespass through Title 30.64 lighting standards and Title 14 nuisance rules. Typical property-line limit is 0.1 to 0.5 footcandle. Glare into neighbor windows is prohibited.
Light trespass in unincorporated Clark County is regulated under Title 30.64 (Lighting Standards) and Title 14.55.020 (Nuisances). Residential property-line illumination is typically limited to 0.1 to 0.5 footcandle depending on zoning district, with direct glare into windows of adjacent dwellings prohibited. Commercial lighting adjacent to residential uses has tighter shielding and curfew requirements. Common sources of light trespass complaints in Clark County include neighbors flood lights pointed over fences, backyard basketball court lighting, landscape uplights aimed through trees, and poorly shielded HOA streetlamps. Master-planned communities like Summerlin South, Anthem, Inspirada, and Green Valley typically enforce tighter CC and R standards. Clark County Code Enforcement investigates complaints after a property owner documents the problem (photos at different times of night, statements from affected neighbors). Remedies include refocusing, reducing wattage, adding shields, or installing motion sensors. Nuisance abatement under Title 14 is available for persistent serious cases.
Light trespass can be cited under Title 30.64 and Title 14.55.020, with corrective orders, fines, and potential civil nuisance liability. Commercial properties face stricter enforcement and can lose permit in repeat cases.
