Maintaining city street lights

During the week of April 13 - 17, City of Tehachapi workers continued to upgrade the street lighting electrical system in front of Kohnen’s Bakery and the Tehachapi Railroad Depot and Museum. Earlier in the year the trees were replaced after their root system caused damage to the existing electrical distribution system. After new trees were planted, ones with a less intrusive root system, the workers replaced old conduit and added electrical access service boxes around the trees to prevent further damage.
