Quick context to catch up fast.
The commission favored amending Princeton’s existing lighting ordinance to support Dark Sky goals rather than drafting a new ordinance. Members will refine a list of proposed changes, circulate it before the next regular meeting, and then seek a discussion with municipal staff; recognition as a Dark Sky municipality was estimated to cost about $1,000.
