There was something that I notice while I was putting up signs.  On Miller Road, from Breiel eastward to Miller Ridge school, we have the olde tyme phony gas street lamps.  Well, they must not have given off enough light, because the standard, modern street lights have also been installed.

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

Oh, and by the way, there is a brand new modern school on one side of the street, and three brand new modern houses on the other side of the street, and that is it.  The olde tyme phony street lamps really look out of place.  It makes one wonder how they ever got a “certificate of appropriateness” out of the Historic 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.
