Be a volunteer. Watch for City info on local cable TV.
We strive to provide diverse opportunities for citizen involvement because we want to keep you up-to-date and informed.

Streetlight Out? Notify the City

The City owns and operates all streetlights in the public right-of-way within the city limits.
If you need to report a problem streetlight, please do the following:

  1. Record the pole number located on the pole, (e.g. 122E). Note the location of the pole, including the nearest street address and/or cross streets.
  2. Document what is wrong with the light, e.g., burned out, flickering, damaged or lighted all the time.
  3. Call our Maintenance Division at 646-3927.
    City-owned streetlights are usually repaired in one or two working days.
