Town seeks options to replace light poles after transformer, joint‑ownership issues

Town of Macclesfield Regular Session Board Meeting · December 15, 2025

Summary

Public Works Director Chevy Taylor told the board several streetlight poles need replacement and one transformer lost power after a lightning arrestor failed; some poles are jointly owned with Bright Speed and Spectrum and staff are exploring grant options and vendor contacts.

Chevy Taylor told commissioners that several light poles around town need to be changed out and that one transformer currently has no power because its lightning arrestor was damaged. Taylor said he has asked the town administrator to look for grant opportunities that could help fund pole replacements and that he will check all town poles as requested by the mayor.

Mayor Michaels Speight and other board members discussed ownership questions: Taylor said some poles are jointly owned with Bright Speed and Spectrum and he will attempt to contact those companies. No procurement or contract action was taken at the meeting; the board asked staff to bring back cost estimates and grant options.
