ORDER FOR NEW LIGHTS REVIVES CONTROVERSY
The Gas and Electric Co. will install two more street lights at $82 per light per year amid a dispute with the city over pricing beyond a contract for 100 lights at $82.50 each. The city argues the excess lights may be priced reasonably, while the company maintains the contract covers all lights. A potential suit for $2,250 may follow.
