White Way Lighting Cost Cut Proposed by City Council
The council approved first reading of an ordinance to cut white way lighting costs from 1.14 to 79 cents per front foot outside the main business district. Two more readings are required before passage. Debate arose over Chamber of Commerce influence on the ordinance with Councilman W G Smith criticizing the survey. Councilman W D Taylor defended the measure saying it reflects business interests and will save about 970 yearly, with bulb power reduced from 1000 to 600 candles in affected districts. The change hinges on Ohio Public Service Company waiving rights and only applies to a one year term. Victor C Reese signed the statement.
