Don't need to convince me of that ....... Regarding the lights, I brought the issue up many, many times. I even got laughed at here for raising such s 'trivial' issue. The City ignored my official testimony at meetings... now we have what we have. In addition the Pony itself has horrendous perimeter lighting as do, the MM/AP offices, ConHall, North Beach, BCH...etc, etc. I warned that it would propagate and eventually get beyond controllable. Other communities have gone so far as to adopt lighting standard ordinances that are retoactive, forcing the removal of non-complient fixtures. They are much nicer and better comminities for their efforts. Don't hold your breaths for Asbury Park to address this rather simple and 'trivial' issue.
