Interesting point. Would you entertain a thought experiment?

I do not know how your back yard is laid out, but I visualize it as a typical North American yard that extends at least fifty feet from the back of the house. Suppose your local government wanted to create a walkable neighborhood. In the process they drew up a quick plan that showed a footpath through your property that is a reasonable distance from your house, say at least fifty feet.

Assuming that you said OK to the plan and granted an easement, would you still feel a need for automatic security lighting in the back yard? If so, why?
