Saving On Electric Bills

If I'm not mistaken, the street lights are controlled by Ohio Edison. Councilman John could best explain how that works in Youngstown. I do agree though that it's silly to have street lights on during the day.

The city of Sharon, PA has initiated a program to turn off many street lights in the downtown area as a way to cut the city's electric bill.

While in downtown Youngstown the other day, I noticed that several street lights on North Phelps Street were actually ON in the middle of the day.
