Illumination items: By the lighting and illumination committee

By the Lighting and Illumination Committee NEW YORK STATE BOOSTS HIGHWAY LIGHTING A bill has recently been passed by New York State which allows the counties of the State to appropriate money for the illumination of highways. This bill is an important and logical step toward providing means of financing highway illumination, placing authority in the hands of the board of supervisors of any county to provide for lighting public highways, or portions thereof, or bridges, located in such county outside of cities and villages. The board must submit proposals to the State Commissioner of Highways when it is desired to provide lighting for some highway or bridge. The Commissioner either approves the proposals or suggests such modification as he sees fit, returning them to the board for final adoption. The expenses for installing and maintaining the lighting system is provided and appropriated in the same manner as other county expenses.
