Keep the street lights turned off at night in KENT

Crime numbers have not gone up Criminals need light to see .People will adapt to change by carrying torches when they are out between those hours if they have a problem with uneven paving and dog fouling.. Many private homes have security lights and if people feel uneasy let them take responsibility for lighting the front of their home.. Light pollution can diminish people's view of the night sky and for many people disturb their sleep with stray light shining through windows. We agree it is a good way to save the council money , It is setting an excellent environmental example but most of all it is a step in the right direction to protect the area from light pollution . I live in one of the areas affected, many people here have welcomed the change and there have been few complaints overall.
