I agree with "dad911" about checking out the local regs. If the light is against local regs, I'd let them know and since they are being insensitive, you will inform the correct people. What do you care, you're not going to be friends with them anyway. I'd also suggest they put in a motion sensor controlled light and tell them it is more affective at discouraging potential intruders as well as being cheaper to run, since it only goes on when triggered.
P.S. I have motion sensor lights on the sides of my house pretty much all around. They are really great for lighting the way if I walk outside after dark.
