Butler Residents Sue to Block Power Lines
About 250 residents of Southwestern Butler County sue in Common Pleas Court to stop a proposed overhead 345,000 volt transmission line in Butler and Montgomery counties. Defendants include Cincinnati Gas & Electric Co. and Dayton Power & Light Co. plus their presidents and the Ohio Public Utilities Commission. The Citizens Committee to Preserve Our Scenic and Historic Areas filed the suit, arguing the 20 mile line from the Miami Fort station to Dayton would use 130 foot steel towers along a 150 foot wide corridor through Ross Morgan and St. areas.
