Hi John and all,
The streetlights in the City of Westbrook are maintained by Central Maine
Power. They have just recently upgraded about 90% of the lights in the city to
LED. We have had various outage issues they are still working on and are still
waiting on LED lights for the ornamental lighting. I have copied our Director
of Public Services Eric Dudley who can possibly provide some additional
information.
Let us know if you have any other questions.
Thanks,
MF
Mayor Michael T. Foley

Here is a small project someone could take on if they have some time to call or
email with Public Services. If you find out, you can just reply to this

Good morning Spokes!
This is the season when street light issues come up given the shorter daytime
hours. We would like to obtain information from you all on how your
municipality manages the maintenance of street lamps to share with Spokes who
are looking for ideas and want to know how other places across the state manage
street lights.
Are the street lights in your town or city owned and maintained by the
municipality? If not, what electric utility company is in charge of this
infrastructure?
Also, please mention your satisfaction with this service and maintenance, and
if you've been involved in service agreements, outage issues, improving the
street lighting, or any other issue regarding street lights in your city or
town.
Thank you, and I'll be sharing a summary of the info once I hear back!
Be well, take care,
Angela
