RE: Internal Lighting Concerns
Dear Mr. Chritz,
Thank you for discussing with me the lighting issues that are occurring at your site. Again, the City is
concerned and has a difficulty with the light emanating from your internal lighting fixtures (drop lights in
your showroom) to the outside of your building. These lights are tremendously powerful and do exceed
your permitted lighting requirements. Accordingly these must be shielded, replaced or eliminated.
We ask that you voluntarily address this situation in the next thirty days. Should this matter not be
addressed the City's alternative would be to amend your Conditional Use Permit requiring that you do so
immediately; however, by such a process you would also be responsible for all related fees.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
