There’s nothing like looking up in the sky and seeing hundreds of beautiful stars. It’s an experience only a few in the LA Metro area can enjoy on rare nights. In the mountain communities, it’s a nightly spectacle. And we intend for it to stay that way with our “dark skies” program. Within the bounds of Centennial, all the lights will be aimed downward for minimal light pollution. Beyond the downward lighting, all outdoor lighting will be non-glare to further protect light projecting up. All signs will have dark backgrounds with minimally colored characters.
Light pollution wastes energy, is harmful to the natural ecosystem and can even cause insomnia. Other health and environmental effects of light pollution are still being investigated, but the bottom line is, it isn’t good for anyone. As always, the environment and well being of our residents and neighbors are our greatest priority, which is why we are striving to make our community one of the best anywhere.
