LED lighting to replace old bulbs in Rutland Town

In a bid to save thousands of dollars in annual energy costs, Rutland Town is preparing to swap its outdated street lights for light-emitting diode, or LED, bulbs. Joseph Zingale Jr., Rutland Town administrator, said all 83 of the town’s old streetlight bulbs will be replaced with new LEDs, saving the town an estimated $4,000 in energy costs in the first year of use.
