Buildings shall be sited so as to minimize view obstruction from sensitive vantage points. This measure shall be accomplished through amendment of the zoning ordinance to include standards for view protection as indicated in this measure. [Final EIR Urban Design Mitigation Measures 2a] The City shall amend the zoning ordinance so that the following glare reduction measures are applied when reviewing new development on a parcel specific basis: Utilize trees or other forms of vegetation to screen and visually soften parking areas. This measure would reduce the amount of glare generated from painted and chrome automobile surfaces and prevent expanses of stationary and moving automobiles; Require use of hooded lights on focused-beam lamps for nighttime illumination in parking areas, shipping and receiving docks and within industrial developments. These lights direct the light beam towards the ground, which if a dark pavement, will not reflect light and cause spillage into neighboring areas; and Require use of materials which reduce or diminish URBAN DESIGN - 6
