He further reported that flood lights (pink) fully illuminate the walls of the structure at 3580 Polo Drive which is owned by Mr. & Mrs. Crocker. Mr. Stenson believes that the extensive outdoor lighting is not in keeping with the character of the Town and if there is nothing to prevent this, an ordinance should be adopted to do so.
