FINDINGS:
The Planning Board approved the site plan for the directional lighting at the Grecourt Gates above the 45 degree plane based on the
information submitted with the application.
In approving the Site Plan for the new lights, the Board found that the slightly higher angle for the directional lights would be entirely
focused on the gates and would be cutoff by the top of the gates.
The Board granted the site plan in accordance with 350 12.2 determining that the efficiency of the directed LED lights would not have a
detrimental effect on the site or the City.
