County school board considers switching to LEDs

The regularly scheduled monthly meeting of the Lafayette County School Board ran longer than usual as the board discussed the possibility of LED lighting in district buildings. Justin Cockrell of Forza Energy was at the meeting to present a study his company had completed on the district’s lighting system. He answered a lot of questions and explained the financial finer points of what the conversion would entail. The district is considering switch from fluorescents to LED lights in every building on campus.
