  Recently KeyBank has been converting many existing drive-up windows to
ATMs in Upstate New York.  The lights that have been placed over the ATM
are so bright that you can read a newspaper in our back yard by the
light which glares into our residential area.

  Telephone calls to the local bank manager have been fielded to
KeyBank's security department, which has not returned phone calls.

  Does anyone else live near one of these, and have a similar problem
with excessive lighting?

  Where they have done this in other communities, have they applied to
local zoning/planning boards, or have they proceeded without letting
local officials know, as they have in this case?

  I would appreciate information on other KeyBank ATM conversions, if
you have any.

  Please e-mail any replies because the Electric Times Union still has
not been able to fix its problem with messages from the
alt.culture.ny-upstate newgroup (messages can be sent, but not
received).  Thank you!
