So far there seems to be strong support for some reduction in street lighting (89%), with the largest group in favour of making a decision on a light by light basis. Up to this morning, Friday 15th March, 36 people have responded to our general poll:

• Decide on a light by light basis – 50%
• Turn all lights off for part of the night – 28%
• Turn street lights off altogether – 11%
• Keep all lights on all night – 11%

In relation to the polls for individual lights, so far, things are less clear cut: some indicate agreement with the County Counci’s specific suggestion, others indicate disagreement with the proposals, though for many there is a split vote giving no clear consensus.

The Parish Council are to discuss this at their meeting next week, and the County Council’s consultation runs to 2nd April, so you still have time to have your say on the gerneral issue and on each light:
