Eastpoint will look a little more Christmassy this
year.
County commissioners last
week agreed to spend nearly 6700 dollars to hang 26 large Christmas decorations
on Progress Energy Power poles along Highway 98 between Island Drive and 3rd street .
The steel decorations are
being made by inmates at the state prison in Carrabelle.
The real cost of the project
is for progress Energy to install the electrical sockets on their poles so the
decorations can be lit.
The county agreed to enter
into a 6 year agreement with the company that leaves progress Energy
responsible for installing and maintaining the service.
The county had set aside 7500
dollars about 2 years ago to cover the cost of the project.
