Since trying to stop these things has a tendency to look anti-community,
etc. and they always seem to get built anyway. One approach might be to
inform about light pollution and the proper use of directed / shielded
lighting, etc. Palomar has a link on their website to do this and take an
active roll in educating the public about proper choices in outdoor lighting
and about the importance of preserving the night sky for all of us.
Something to think about...

This in the mail....now since I live on the Northwest side off Happy Valley,
do I really want lighted basketball/volleyball courts, lighted soccer field.
I don't think so! It should effect the SAC outings at Thunderbird Park.
