Does the light shine through any bedroom windows? You could be able to claim sleep disruption.
I had no end of problems with one outside our house that shone straight into the eyes when you walked into the bedroom at night. You might not think this is much of a problem but after a midnight visit to the bathroom when I walked into the bedroom the light shone straight into the eyes waking me right up. I would then not be able to get back to sleep for ages.
(note: an old uni trick for staying up late and studying, turn the lights off for a few minutes, keep your eyes closed and then turn the light back on. I used to be good for another couple of hours after that. It wakes the brain back up)
I mentioned to my council that it was disrupting my sleeping patterns and my emotional wellbeing, and they said they would be happy to look into it. Unfortunately we sold our house a month later before they got back to me
I hope the new owners will benefit from it.
Maybe worth a try
BTW I tried the standard approach of asking to get it shrouded and they said np, get consent from the neighbours and be prepared to pay for it. yeah right, with my council $1500 would have been a deposit.
