Liberty Lake Revamps Lighting Regulations for Dark Sky Certification and LED Transition

On June 25, 2025, the Liberty Lake Planning Commission met to discuss energy-efficient lighting and dark sky certification. The meeting focused on transitioning from traditional sodium lights to LED lighting, emphasizing energy savings and longer lifespan despite higher initial costs. While no state or federal mandates exist for this conversion, market trends are driving the shift toward LED technology. The commission also addressed the dark sky certification process, which aims to minimize light pollution and enhance nighttime visibility. Although Liberty Lake follows a dark sky ordinance, further expertise and analysis are necessary for certification compliance. Concerns about the impact of these standards on future construction projects were raised, and the commission agreed on the need for ongoing evaluation of the city’s lighting codes to ensure alignment with sustainability goals. Overall, the discussions highlighted Liberty Lake’s commitment to becoming a recognized dark sky community. For full details, refer to the video of the meeting.
