Light Pollution

Should I set up a table to sell grilled-cheese sandwiches? I bet I could sell at least fifty.

You would definitely make money, especially if you had hot chocolate with marshmallows. However, it probably would require a vending permit if it was allowed at all. ;-)

One may think that a vending permit would be required, but if all of the County Commissioners are eating my sandwiches, I doubt anyone would say anything. I could set up in the break room, and ask for suggested $2 donations for sandwiches.

:scratch:Very interesting strategy... It is definitely food for thought

Maybe the Commissioners could get theirs for free, that way they would be on the hook for accepting bribes, if I needed to pull a card.

Yes, but a privacy fence stands in the way.:roll:

Get a scope.

Better yet just call CHELCO and request to have the power turned off due to "moving". Do it from a payphone. ;-)

IMO, after listening to the many arguments for and against light ordinances, it will be difficult at best to come up with one which works.

Phooey. Lots of communities have done it. Sanibel has two lighting ordinances, one for turtles and one for the type of situation Skunky is describing. Check this out:

The problem is not crafting workable ordinances. Walton County always acts as if they are reinventing the wheel. The problem is the political will and the "anything goes" mentality. What, my lights are keeping you awake at night? Well, gee, too bad. It's my property and my lights and I can do whatever I want.

There should not be that many fireworks at the meeting. It should just be passed, because if it isn't, there is gonna be a problem with the take permit.
But SJ is right, it might be a long meeting. This has been dragging on for ten years already.
I love grilled cheese sandwiches! With hot chocolate, yummy. My daddy used to make that for me.

Oh, and another thing, since the menu got me to thinking about my daddy. Why should we need an educational campaign to teach people to be considerate of others? Isn't that something we were supposed to learn growing up??
(And by others, I don't mean only our nect door neighbors. I mean other life forms as well.)

I say be daring and sell beer. Or better yet, margaritas.

We can get the commisioners dargarita'd-up and we can get anything we want passed!
