GROW-LIGHTS POLLUTION

Re "Board gets tougher on pot" (Downstroke, Aug. 2):

Did the supervisors consider a light ordinance? Our next-door
neighbors are very nice people keeping to themselves. They said they
are growing tomatoes in a white plastic greenhouse in the middle of
the forest in a residential neighborhood, and their grow lights light
up the sky and the forest as if a major planet settled in with full-on
lighting at 3 a.m. in the morning.

Whatever they are growing, this is very inconsiderate. Lights out at
10 p.m. would be good. They even check on their grow and must be a
little hard of hearing, as their voices carry in the night at 3 a.m.

I would like to keep my name from being published for obvious reasons
of not wanting my neighbor to become adversary.

Name withheld
