prior arrangement for lights?

Some approaches have a note, "Procedure NA at night except by prior
arrangement for runway lights". Let's say I make this prior
arrangement (presumably by talking to the airport manager and having
him leave the lights on for me), how do I deal with ATC?

When I ask for the approach, is the controller going to ask me if I
have made "prior arrangement" for the lights? Is my say-so good
enough for him, or does he need to get some official notice from the
airport manager saying it's OK to let him run the approach?

IME, ATC assumes that if you ask for something, it's legal for you to do
it. They don't have the time to investigate that kind of thing.
