Lexington,KEN,USA -The Herald Leader, by Karla Ward -August 12, 2014: -- Compressed natural gas is touted as greener and cheaper than diesel fuel, and it's coming to Lexington in new garbage trucks, buses and fueling stations... The city on Tuesday unveiled 11 garbage trucks that run on the fuel, and it has committed to replacing its entire fleet with garbage trucks that run on compressed natural gas over time... The trucks cost $353,000 each — about the same as a diesel truck — and are being bought as part of the city's normal replacement schedule... Two others are scheduled to arrive in December, and the city has budgeted $2.9 million to buy 10 to 12 more trucks over the next year...
