Light Out? We Need to Know.

Streetlights make our roadways and sidewalks safer for vehicles and pedestrians. An outdoor light on your property also can provide a sense of security and keep you from fumbling for your keys in the dark.

However, these benefits can’t be realized if a light is not working properly. If you know of a malfunctioning outdoor light in our service territory, let us know and we can make sure it is repaired. When reporting a light out, provide:

The specific street address of the light.
A description of where the light is on the property.
A description of the nature of the light’s malfunction.
Sufficient contact information, including your name, address, phone number, Gulf Coast Electric Cooperative account number and email address so co-op personnel can contact you with any questions.

We appreciate your help. Safe, reliable service—that’s our promise.
