Very, Very Long Week
I’m glad it’s over. Later today, or maybe tomorrow, I’ll sum up the decisions made this week on Project 180. I think it’s clear now that LED lighting is now on the table, but it’s far from a done deal and I’m seeing evidence that the LED industry is now paying attention to this discussion and sees the opportunity to make its case with Project 180 and counter information given out by consultants and OG&E concerning the readiness of the technology and available warrantees.
Not sure what’s going to happen with the “other” downtown initiatives. I’ve had a lot of people ask me what’s going on. After watching Tulsa leaders and their opposition the past decade, I recognize failures on both sides when I see it. Will we end up being like Tulsa? I hope not.
Thank you for joining our conversation on OKC Central. We encourage your discussion but ask that you stay within the bounds of our commenting and posting policy.
This is a BIG opportunity for the LED industry and they need to sweeten the pot. They’ll not get an opportunity to show their wares on this grand a scale for a long time, if ever. They need to be throwing incentives TO OKC to make this happen. How about a 30 year warranty on all equipment purchased up front?
