Who takes care of the street lights if they have burned out bulbs or parts are broken, etc.?
If the light is on City right of way and faces the street, you should contact the Street Dept at 684-8165 to report lights that aren t working or that appear to be damaged. Some of these lights are the responsibility of the Street Dept, but most are maintained by Avista Utilities. In either case, the Street Dept. will determine who is responsible and take the appropriate action. If the light is on private property, such a private parking lot and faces the property, it is the property owner’s responsibility. Area electricians may be able to help you with the problem.
