said by mikedz4:what I don't understand is why even in new developments here in the ohio valley they don't lay lines underground. The only place they burried the lines was along a street where they removed the power poles for a streetscape project.
Lots of places in Ohio do - my moms previous house and the house was 20 years old. The places that bury the lines are usually wealthier sections of towns where the added cost is not as noticeable as it would be in a typically blue collar section of towns.
