There was something that I notice while I was putting upsigns.  On Miller Road, from Breieleastward to Miller Ridge school, we have the olde tyme phony gas streetlamps.  Well, they must not have givenoff enough light, because the standard, modern street lights have also beeninstalled.

Besides that obvious added capital costs, we citizens havehad (and will continue to have) the privilege of paying for the extraelectricity required for the redundant lamps every month, right along with allof the other street lights in town.

Oh, and by the way, there is a brand new modern school onone side of the street, and three brand new modern houses on the other side ofthe street, and that is it.  The olde tyme phony streetlamps really look out of place.  It makesone wonder how they ever got a “certificate of appropriateness” out of theHistoric Commission, because they certainly don’t look appropriate.

So, does this mean that we'll be installing the phony lights on ALL new or rebuilt streets from now on???  If so, Josh better raise the amount a whole lot higher...and Ms. G. better raise her street light electricity fee a whole lot higher, too.
