Ms. Elizabeth Filippelli, Lights Out Northeast Florida, and Mr. Mike Taylor, Jacksonville Zoo and Botanical Gardens, introduced themselves at the podium. Ms. Filippelli stated that Lights Out Northeast Florida has operated for about seven years and that it has conducted about 14 seasons of collecting deceased birds killed by glass in downtown. She further noted that the Lights Out initiative was first created 27 years ago in Chicago, following a large glass collision event in which hundreds of birds died.
This civic agenda item concerns a proposal to reduce bird collisions with buildings in the city. Lights Out Northeast Florida, represented by Ms. Elizabeth Filippelli, and the Jacksonville Zoo and Botanical Gardens, represented by Mr. Mike Taylor, are advocating for bird-friendly building practices. The initiative highlights the significant number of bird deaths caused by building glass and artificial lights, particularly along the Atlantic Flyway. Recommendations include shutting off lights during peak migration and using bird-friendly window designs for new construction, which add minimal cost. The item is currently under review by the Transportation, Energy & Utilities Committee. This discussion could lead to future opportunities for contractors and suppliers involved in building retrofits and new construction, including those specializing in site preparation, window installation, lighting systems, and potentially landscaping. Early engagement with city planning and advocacy groups may provide insight into upcoming projects and requirements.
