The Cleveland Municipal Light Plant in 1941
The Cleveland Municipal Light Plant operated in Cleveland for 64 years, dividing politics in Cleveland in many directions, and not always along party lines. Known locally as "Muny Light," it often was embroiled in corruption. Even so, it also managed to serve as a shining pillar for the community. While many of its directors were accused of corruption and often found themselves in the employ of the rival CEI, Muny Light also aided the community in ways that were not merely financial kick-backs for the city. During the Great Depression, the plant's profits helped the city make relief payments to citizens in need of financial help. | Source: Cleveland Memory Project, Cleveland State University Library Special Collections
