From First Energy:
As utility pole attachments such as cameras, banners and flags continue to gain popularity in many of our communities, Ohio Edison reminds the public that a formal approval process must be followed to ensure utility pole attachments, like cameras, are safe and legal.
Prior to attaching any object to Ohio Edison utility poles or equipment, the requestor must receive approval from the company to ensure the safety of residents and utility personnel. FirstEnergy’s pole attachment guidelines can be found here: Joint Use Policies (firstenergycorp.com)
Additionally, prior to connecting a device to Ohio Edison power lines, the requestor MUST apply for electric service for each specific location. Failure to do so creates major safety concerns and often results in accidental theft of electricity. Only Ohio Edison is authorized to perform work on its equipment for new service connection.
Entities interested in any attachments to Ohio Edison owned poles or equipment and/or establishing electric service for a device are encouraged to contact their Regional External Affairs representative to learn more or get the process started.
Safety is our top priority, and we look forward to continuing to work together to make our communities stronger and our customers lives brighter!

The State of Ohio has created a website to find products "MADE IN OHIO"
|
a website called SeniorsMobility.org, which provides information for seniors to stay active, mobile, and independent.
I’ve recently published comprehensive guides that might be of interest to the residents of Lakemore, including nearly two dozen guides on various types of mobility exercises for seniors (including free downloadable PDFs of the exercises). You can see one of the exercise guides here: Best Mobility Exercises for Seniors I’ve also published guides on where seniors can get a free wheelchair or mobility scooter, along with where to donate wheelchairs: Free Wheelchairs & Free Mobility Scooters in the US – List of Programs State by State Where to Donate Wheelchairs and Walkers Near Me I thought these resources might be of interest to senior citizens in Lakemore. Would you mind taking a look and letting me know if the guides are of use to you? Looking forward to hearing from you, Maurice Muise, M.Sc. Editor, SeniorsMobility.org P.S. All of the information on my website is completely free, and the site has been getting rave reviews. If there’s anything I can do to help you, please hit “reply” and let me know! *Little Lakemore Food Cupboard outside Lakemore Police Department.
