Our project is a major rehab of an existing classroom, class lab and academic department office building located on a college campus. The site has frontage on the campus ring road just outside our LEED boundary. Within our LEED boundary are 3 old snakehead street lights that are designed to illuminate the ring road. These lights are energized from the project building electrical service. The streetlights do not meet current light cutoff standards and their light is designed to spill outside of the project site boundary onto the roadway. My problem is if I include the roadway they illuminate with the project boundary I can’t achieve SSc5.2. And if I exclude the roadway I can’t meet the light trespass requirements of SSc8. We’re looking for an option that allows us to exclude these lights from our LEED boundary but we keep bumping into the fact that they are energized from our building. Any suggestions?
