Please forward RMA's Testimony on Street Lights to City Council members and your friends.
RMA's position is informed by experts at the Street Light Task Force and the Dark Sky Association. You can help save the historic character of Embassy Row (ie no bright 3000 Kelvin lights) and improve future lighting for the whole city.
RMA's Feb 21 Tour of Street Lights drew many from Dupont Circle and elsewhere.
On our tour slideshow see for yourself the differences in present lights (amber, HPS) versus the very bright blue-white LED lights (some at 4000K )which the Department of Transportation is already installing.
Many people from Ward 2 and Ward 3 are joining the ranks of residents trying to make the nation's capital do better than some other cities (Milan, Italy). Other cities are models (Phoenix, AZ) How Washington builds out its new lighting infrastructure in the next 15 years will be decided soon!
