Potomac Avenue Street Light Replacement
Summary
The borough's existing Potomac Avenue lights are out of production with no parts left, so a replacement decision is coming one way or another. A cheap quote through the Act 129 rebate program drew aesthetic objections, and members want to look at other options — possibly with grant help — before committing.

Impact analysis
The quoted lights cost $7,020 under the rebate program, but members warned the savings won't last if the purchase is delayed.
Potomac Avenue businesses, visitors, and residents would get reliable new lighting.
None identified, though critics argue the current design choice would harm the business district's character.
