Dec. 20, 2010 Staff Report

The lights on the Sunnyside Arch are expected to glow once again.

During the first week of January, Sunnyside Shines, the local business improvement group (BID), will be erecting lights which will be permanently affixed  to the arch. The BID will have the ability to light them whenever it chooses and whatever color.

Historically, the arch has had lighting; however, in recent years the lights have been out.
