Plymouth Street Department to Update Lighting

The Plymouth Street Department’s main building and cold storage will get a lighting upgrade.

Street Superintendent Jim Marquardt told the Plymouth City Council members last week that they are no longer able to find the fluorescent bulbs for the building at a reasonable rate. A light survey was done by the members of the company who completed other lighting projects for other city buildings. It was determined that the fixtures to accommodate LED lighting would cost nearly $30,000. The street department crew will install the fixtures.

The funding for the project will come from the common sense fund and an additional appropriation will be advertised in order to spend that money.

The city council members approved the request with a unanimous vote.
