Gadsden City Council voted July 1 to adopt a resolution authorizing an agreement with Alabama Power Company to upgrade two existing streetlights to LED fixtures and to provide routine maintenance.

The move affects two streetlights on Right Circle and Bonton Avenue and carries a charge of $7.38 per fixture per month, Council President Beck said during the meeting.

The resolution was introduced under Item 9 on the agenda and adopted by unanimous voice vote after a motion to adopt. Council members did not request further study or amendments during the discussion.

Council President Beck described the work as an upgrade to LED fixtures and maintenance; no additional technical specifications for the fixtures or a contractor timetable were discussed at the meeting. The agreement was presented as a single-item resolution and implemented by council motion and voice vote.

The action places ongoing monthly maintenance and the LED service charge with Alabama Power; the resolution does not specify an end date or a separate capital appropriation in the meeting record. The council did not request a follow-up report in the meeting.
