Planners and Residents Educated on ‘Dark Skies’ Initiative

Eddie Lain is advocating for the restoration of dark skies in Valley Center during a recent meeting of the Valley Center Community Planning Group. Highlighting concerns over increasing light pollution that has diminished the visibility of stars and the Milky Way, Lain emphasized the importance of adhering to the County’s Dark Skies Ordinance. This ordinance aims to protect the visibility of celestial bodies, particularly for the Palomar Observatory. He outlined specific lighting regulations for local businesses and offered tips for compliance, urging residents and business owners to switch to more suitable lighting to help restore Valley Center’s nighttime views.
