This one street light outside number 40 is on its own timer Tuesday the 8th January. Light comes on at 9pm and
goes out at 12 past 9pm. The other two street lights are not on. This one outside number 40 house comes on at 10

Research from the American Medical Asssociation had found that the cold white light of LED lamps can have
potentially harmful health effects impairing sleep and vision. I therefore appeal you to ensure that those LED lights
that are being trialled at the moment and those soon to be implemented in the wider Dunedin area do not have

of the lamps too.
It is nice to have bright lights and also shines better on the property.

Sorry to say, I can't give an opinion on the new lighting on our street. I am an elderly lady and choose not to go out
at night. I can't see that this is much help to you but was encouraged by the young man who delivered this paper to
do so. I wish you luck in your deliberations.
Road is not so well lighted, there appears to be more areas not as well lit and darker shadows.

Though it is a great and wonderful safety mechanism, I have had to buy Blackout curtains, as way too bright with
the bedrooms at the front of the house.

Also the lights from Melbourne Street shine in my backyard and into lounge. Which is not a bad thing for the
backyard security, however I have added blackout curtains to that room. Not a cheap process for single parent
home owner, but safety walking around is better for those who do.
