Location: TSCID District
Details: The TSCID is under contract with Wi-Skies to begin photometric design of various streets throughout the CID. In partnership with Georgia Power, the City of Tucker and DeKalb County, the CID will be developing lighting layouts on all CID streets over the next 12-15 months. These layouts will include cost estimates for new or upgraded light fixtures and new poles where the photometric design work indicates lighting is necessary. The CID will be reaching out to owners on each street to discuss the project details, cost sharing options and schedule for implementation.
