Brisbane Astronomical Society had a brief talk from a councillor from just south of Brisbane. If I remember correctly, he said that if the street lighting didn't meet Australian Standards you could ask that shielding be installed to make it so (and it shouldn't be at your expense). The Australian Standard details how the light shines out of the fixture.
I'm not saying the above is gospel, but it may be a starting point if council don't seem interested.
His other advice was to talk about carbon footprint and energy savings by reducing excessive lighting when making any submissions.
