At the June 12 Ojai City Council meeting, Scott Kardel of the International Dark-Skies Association, gave a well-received presentation on why we want dark skies and need an exterior lighting ordinance to support it.

Scott then met with city staff and community members to discuss the details of the ordinance. We look forward to a revised ordinance that educates and progresses us toward our goal of being a recognized Dark Skies community.
A big thank you to George Berg and Gail Topping for sponsoring Scott and to Scott for taking the time and making the effort to travel from Arizona to support our community.
