NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Normally there are problems with lighting in a park, it's because the lights aren't bright enough or there is not enough of them.

However, that's not the problem at Bicentennial Mall State Park in downtown Nashville. The lighting there is so hot that a small child was burned.

Two years ago a child fell down on one of the lights and suffered second-degree burns.

However, fixing the lights has been a challenge. A year ago the state proposed replacing all 200 ground lights with LED lights, which are a lower temperature and use less energy.

The change would cost more than $350,000 because all wiring and fixtures would need to be replaced.

City officials have thought about putting screens over the ground lights, but decided that would cause a tripping hazard.

Now, they are waiting to see if next year's budget includes funding for new, safer lights.
