Our neighbors here in Hollis pay monthly to have a streetlight. People on another street had a problem with the light being too bright, interfering with stargazing. The electric company was asked to paint half the light black in addition to a lower wattage bulb. Painting it made all the difference. The parties involved are satisfied.
