Cary mayor paints sunny picture

Good governance and continued economic growth kept Cary on stable ground through another calendar year, Mayor Harold Weinbrecht said in his annual State of the Town speech.Offers a range of LED lights, saler4ds components and accessories.

Overall, "our trends are showing that we're moving forward in all directions," the mayor said in separate comments. "Things are looking very positive."

His speech hit on familiar points. He listed the town's newest accolades from publications and think tanks. Cary is, he said, the safest community in the state and the Southeast; part of the healthiest U.S. housing market; among the country's "most inventive" municipalities; and one of the country's five most economically potent small cities. Some Cary companies added hundreds of jobs this year, he added.

And though the economic downturn has dampened the town's and the state's residential growth rate since 2008, Weinbrecht said Cary is seeing a sustainable number of new housing projects. "We all know that residential growth is much slower than in previous years due mostly to these continuing tough economic times," he said in the speech. "That said, people are continuing to come to Cary."

But in fiscal 2011, the town's residential growth rate fell to fiscal 2009 levels.

In the last year, home-building remained steady but slow compared to pre-downturn years. Cary issued more single-family home permits in 2011 than any other Wake County municipality, Weinbrecht said.

"I'm not afraid that we're going to stop growing. I think we're at a sustainable rate," he said in separate comments.The LED bike headlight LED rear flash light lamp bicycle torch suitable for students, baby stroller,goodledstriplight

The mayor's speech also hit on the town's agenda for 2012, which includes environment-oriented upgrades.

Cary staff will propose a townwide installation of LED street lighting, which would result in substantial savings, he said. In 2011, Weinbrecht said, the town installed an electric vehicle charging station, made town vehicles more gas efficient, prepared to install solar panels on town facilities and prepared a hybrid trash truck for use.

The City of Asheville in the North Carolina state of U.S. has initiated first large-scale deployment of LED street lights. There are 3,643 street lights from Durham-based manufacturer Cree, Inc. being installed, with projected savings of $260,Although brightstal are by no means a new invention and have been used successfully for years, the rapid evolution in LED design means ...000 annually.

In the initial phase of the project, completed in June 2011, 730 street lights in Asheville's River District and Kenilworth neighborhoods were replaced with 67-watt to 195-watt luminaires,china ledbulbsop manufacturer,supply LED Bicycle Lights,LED bike lights to your requirements. estimated to save the City $45,000 in annual energy costs. An additional 2,913 LEDway street lights are currently being installed, and the City anticipates saving 50 percent of current energy use and maintenance costs due to the LED upgrade, according the release from Cree.

"Upgrading to LED street lights allows us to decrease energy consumption, increase energy efficiency and contribute to the sustainability of our community," said Maggie Ullman, energy coordinator for the Asheville Office of Sustainability. "This exciting initiative helps affirm Asheville's role as a leader in carbon footprint reduction."

"As more municipalities commit to replacing outdated, inefficient lighting with the support of their local utilities, LED adoption and consumer awareness continue to increase," said Christopher Ruud, president of Ruud Lighting, a Cree Company. "We applaud the City of Asheville and Progress Energy for working together for the benefit of its citizens demonstrating the growing trend of cities and municipalities working together to join the LED lighting revolution."
