Councilor John Tobin thinks that Dominic Luberto, the man whose "Christmas Castle" bathes Jamaica Plain in holiday light, is courting disaster.
Tobin wants Luberto to hire a police detail because he thinks gawkers driving past the "Christmas Castle" might cause a car accident.
It's a legitimate question. One of Luberto's neighbors said recently, "I love the lights. I just don't want anybody to get killed."
Luberto is rebuffing Tobin's suggestion. He told WHDH that the house slowed down traffic and that "they should pay me, really!"
But couldn't Tobin and Luberto compromise? Couldn't the police detail dress in a Santa costume?
