BATTLE GROUND — It was a dreary Thursday, but crews around Battle Ground were working to bring some light to the city. DJ’s Electrical spent time replacing streetlights in Battle Ground with LED bulbs. The change to the city’s 2,300 streetlights from high-pressure sodium to LED bulbs is part of an energy-saving initiative in the city. “A lot like people are doing at home, we’re changing out our lights to more efficient ones,” said Scott Sawyer, the city’s public works director.
