Waffle house is a significant source of light pollution in the county. They have NO full cutoff fixtures whatsoever and their parking lot lights are too bright. A recipe that spells doom for the night sky.

This is the east side of the building.

This is the parking lot on the south side of the building. A total of 6 light fixtures for this short parking lot.

This is the north side of the building. The same type of awful fixtures on this side. Each one throws off a huge amount of glare.  What are they illuminating on this side of the building?  There are no door and the patrons don't park on this side of the building.

This is the same side at night. Notice the glare from the fixtures.

This is the parking lot light cluster. If these were pointing 90 degrees down, it would cut down the glare but it would still be too bright.

This is the light B in the third photograph. It needs to be pointed down. A better option would be a full-cutoff wall pack.
