Outdoor Lighting Code Committee

The Outdoor Lighting Code Committee (OLCC) provides recommendations to the City of Tucson Mayor and Council and the Pima County Board of Supervisors regarding the Outdoor Lighting Code. An official collaborative effort between the City of Tucson and Pima County, OLCC works to preserve the relationship between residents and their unique desert environment by protecting access to dark skies and promoting responsible lighting practices. The code aims to minimize obtrusive and excessive outdoor lighting, safeguard the night sky for astronomical activities, and reduce energy waste, all while ensuring safety, security, and the enjoyment of nighttime activities. By regulating outdoor lighting, OLCC seeks to enhance the community’s connection to the desert environment and support sustainable, thoughtful lighting solutions.
