NORFOLK, Va. — Congressman Bobby Scott (D-Va-03) will deliver $3 million in community project funds to the City of Norfolk to fund the multi-year project to convert all of the city's 30,000 streetlights from the current high-pressure sodium fixtures to LED fixtures.
Congressman Scott secured the funds in the FY 23 Omnibus Appropriations Act. These new LED fixtures are more energy efficient compared to the current HPS fixtures.
The check presentation will take place at East Ocean View Community and Senior Center on Thursday. Mayor Kenny Alexander and other city officials will be in attendance.
Congressman Scott's team says other community project funds are also anticipated to be delivered in the coming weeks.
