LEDs Will Light Up Homer Harbor Next Year

Homer will soon join the list of U.S. cities making the switch to LED lights. On Oct. 10, the Homer City Council passed an ordinance authorizing the installation of new LED lights on seven high mast poles around the Homer Harbor. Originally, the Port and Harbor Department had planned to install LEDs on a single pole as a test project. But the City Council voted down that ordinance in favor of an expanded project that will install lights on all seven poles. The estimated price tag for the project is $180,000.
