Fixing Light Pollution, Modifying Road Diet Considered by Council

By Anne Levin Princeton Council heard presentations at its Monday, November 9, meeting on light pollution from the Princeton Environmental Commission (PEC); and on modifying the scope of work for the previously authorized North Harrison Street Improvement Project, from a member of the municipal staff. Also presented to the governing body was a report by Eagle Scout Zafir Shamsi, about the new kiosk he has constructed at the Rogers Wildlife Refuge, for his service project. Shamsi told Council members that the new, weather-resistant kiosk is completed after some 120 hours of work, receiving applause for his efforts. Council adopted an ordinance establishing a separate, special services charge for the redaction of body-worn and in-vehicle camera footage by police. Before voting in favor, Councilman Leighton Newlin said he had concerns about people who can’t afford the charge for the footage.
