Brook Park to phase-in LED street lighting

Brook Park (ohio) will begin replacing the lamps in streetlights with LED bulbs after City Council unanimously approved an ordinance enabling the mayor to execute a service agreement with Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company.

The city’s current legacy (high-pressure sodium) bulbs will be replaced as they fail at no cost.

There are roughly 1,900 streetlights in the city. the city had opted to replace all of them up front with LEDs, it would have cost approximately $460,000.
