Kenan Critiques Cincinnati Street Lighting Standards
Norman G. Kenan of Union Gas and Electric told a public hearing that Cincinnati street lighting is a disgrace and a farce. He argued current specifications restrict competition and favor bids tied to a commercial franchise, warning that only one bid could be received and may be deemed unreasonable. He noted past forced buyouts led to higher costs for the public and urged specification changes to open districts to proper competition. The two hour meeting, with Mayor Schwab and council aides present, reviewed suggestions for incorporation into the new contract rules.
