Covington Mayor Backs Light Installation Plan
Covington Mayor O Donovan will present a proposal to install 108 boulevard lights along Scott Boulevard from Suspension Bridge to Sterritt Avenue at a cost of 72 dollars per lamp per year. The plan faces possible opposition over annual expenses exceeding 5 thousand dollars, with a suggested 400 candle power option to save about 1500 a year. Lights would be placed 80 feet apart in alternating positions rather than paralleling Madison Avenue.
