Press Release: The Operation Night Light Project has begun in the Ensley Redevelopment District. The resolution was adopted by County Commissioners in 2014. The purpose of the outdoor lights is to help lower crime rates, increase property values and deter activities that can negatively affect the quality of life of neighborhood residents.

This stage of the project, funded by the Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA), consists of 94 LED Cobrahead fixtures to be installed within the Ensley Redevelopment District. Currently 24 of the 94 LED lights have been installed on the west side of the railroad tracks along Johnson Avenue and Chemstrand Road. Installation is expected to be completed around mid-March.

For more information, visit MyEscambia.com or contact the CRA office at (850) 595-3585. For the latest news about Escambia County, please follow us on Twitter @MyEscambia.
