Baytown installs Omniflow high tech light at Jenkins Park
Baytown installs a solar and wind powered Omniflow light at Jenkins Park as a test project under the Perfect Trail program. The fixture doubles as a phone charging station and is funded by a Texas Parks and Wildlife Recreational Trails Grant along with trail improvements totaling about 6 000 dollars. If successful, plans call for a fully lit Jenkins Park loop with renewable energy lights and expanded signage and safety features for emergency responders.
