Street Light Shields

As you walk through Hawthorn Park you might be wondering why the street lamps have black paint on some of the lamp shields. In 2006 some homeowners were bothered by the intensity of the street lights nearest their homes. Perhaps the lights entered a bedroom. The Board worked with FPL on a solution. Homeowners at the time were polled on their preferences. FPL then took these inputs and blackened the lamp shields where they faced a home that wanted no light.
