Wow! I am glad to hear that someone took action instead of trying to work around it.

What I despise most with those cases against big organiyations (both "private", as well as government) is mainly when they loose the case, the tendency to force the winning small sides into "confidentiality agreements" or similar. Even requesting anything close to that from the "larger side" should be treated as a sign of bad faith...

How selfish and petty do you have to be to force an entire council to replace LED street lights they spent millions on? She couldn't even bother to buy blackout curtains??  :poof: Disgusting. ::)

True. But they agreed to only do it on her street so it isn’t that bad.

To be fair, depending on the size of street they are on, 3000K might have been a better compromise instead of the original 4000K or 5000K, especially on a quiet residental street or a park.

My area seems to have moved away from the 4000K and 5000K LED streetlights that were used during the initial installs in the mid 2010s, instead most newer installs and spot replacements are 3000K.
